Belfast-based Lyric Theatre NI completed a Future Screens NI Rewriting the Narrative funded project addressing cultural industry issues raised by the Covid-19 lockdowns. During the Covid lockdown, which began in March 2020, theatres were closed and audience attendance at live events was prohibited. Drama facilitators and actors were also denied access to schools and for the Creative Learning department at the Lyric Theatre, which normally offers an extensive, year-round programme of outreach work, this posed a huge challenge. The team were therefore compelled to quickly re-think their strategic output and to explore digital opportunities to continue their support for students and teachers. Two previously produced Theatre-in-Education shows (Blackout and the environment-focused A Walk Is Not Just A Walk) were re-rehearsed under Covid compliant conditions and then filmed. A range of supporting resources using immersive technology e.g. Virtual Reality and 360-degree filming were created and trailed in schools across Northern Ireland. Funding from Future Screens allowed them to create these resources and analyse the comparative impact to live performances. Funding from another source enabled us to tour a live version of A Walk Is Not Just A Walk; the film version of which was shown to pupils in Primary schools across Northern Ireland. A comparative analysis was thereafter drawn from the audience responses to the two media.
