Silent Heroines Illustration Workshop

Every woman has a story - and we want to hear yours. Come along to our Illustration workshop where artist and illustrator Jazz Thompson will help you bring your stories and reflection to life.

In this workshop Jazz will lead a discussion where you explore what being a woman means to you. To help you visualise and process this, Jazz will support you to produce an illustration, a collage or a piece of writing.

The final piece will go on tour with The Silent Heroines Disco performance, with the works displayed at each venue. This is a chance to get your voice heard, illustrated and accounted for.

How to get involved

This workshop is free to attend and is open to people who identify, or have lived experience, as a girl or woman. Ages 11+ You do not need to bring anything with you, but we are asking people to register via the ticket link to help us plan for numbers.

More About Silent Heroine Disco

Silent Heroines Disco is an immersive theatre piece, directed by Jody Cook and Rosalie Pordes.

The idea was created by the Dutch company Women Connected, who developed the first Silent Heroines Disco in 2016 for International Women’s Day. Since then, they have grown the idea: performing festivals, touring internationally and inspiring other arts organisations to create their own versions. Jody Cook has followed the journey and chose to stage her own in Lockleaze in 2021 – and now for 2023 is touring it across other sites in Bristol and Weston Super Mare.
