The Methodology Library: From Theory to Practice

This is your open-access resource for proven, practical frameworks that you can apply directly in the studio, the classroom, or your creative process. Bridge the gap between idea and execution.

A great artistic or pedagogical idea is not enough. The true challenge lies in transforming that idea into a repeatable, effective process. How do you structure a collaborative devising session? What is the most effective way to teach a complex movement without causing injury? How can you integrate technology into your rehearsals in a meaningful way?

The CENIE Methodology Library exists to answer these questions.

Sourced from the innovative work of our Creative & Training Hubs, and curated from a global network of expert practitioners and researchers, this is a living collection of evidence-based frameworks. Each methodology is documented to be clear, actionable, and adaptable to your specific needs.
