Everybodys Toolbox open source in the performing arts

Workshop is one of those terms used in such a wide sense that it has lost any meaning. International Festival seems to make it even more complicated to pin point its meaning?

The question is just how this possibility can be articulated, how some form of engagement can be established?

So before anything, I am concerned with the consistency of the notion of “work” so I would start from here. What does it mean to work and to produce work?
