It is always wonderful to hear from our MA Theatre Practice<\/a> alumni who are arts practitioners, educators and researchers around the globe.
In the last weeks, we received some brilliant messages and information about their recent activities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Millie Sale (MATP 2023-2024)<\/strong> performed in Kelvin Wong’s cross-cultural, intermedial and environmentally sustainable piece Unsilent Mode<\/em> in September 2024. Details: https:\/\/www.unsilentmode.com\/<\/a>
In November 2024, Millie also assisted Giorgia Ciampi in her latest performance The Spiral <\/em>as part of the inaugural RECLAIM FESTIVAL for women and by women, curated by the Northcott Theatre in Exeter.

Mingyou Cai (MATP 2022-2023)<\/strong> has now started his Ph.D. at the University of Malaya, with the topic of Exploring the Adaptation of Traditional Asian Performance into Contemporary Performance<\/em>.
He shared with us: “This will relate to many creative methods that we have worked together in Exeter, and I am exciting to applying the skills in this new adventure.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yuting Cao (MATP 20222-2023)<\/strong> has set up her own theatre & music company, first leading a physical theatre workshop on Meyerhold in the summer. In October 2024, she created a full performance, followed by a workshop, at the invitation of Longcheng Creativity Community (LCC). 
The 40-minute piece, Echo of Love<\/em>, premiered at Longcheng Creativity Community, Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province. Yuting Cao was the writer and director of the piece. Fellow MATP graduate Shiwei Sonia Li (MATP 2022-2023)<\/strong> was the movement director, and the music was composed by Qinhua Chen. Shiwei also worked with Yuting on the Meyerhold workshop in the spring.
Yuting shared: “I used the elements of Meyerhold’s biomechanics combined with modern piano music to tell the audience the story of the symbiosis between humans and AI. The story structure is divided into the innocence of childhood, the rebellion of adolescence, the love of youth, the crisis of middle age and the departure of old age.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\n\t\t
