Workshops: Outspoken
Tuesday 24 August to Wednesday 25 August 6:00pm to 10:00pm
FREE (apply by submission process)
Are you an aspiring poet, but have little or no experience of being in front of an audience? Join Manchester's queer vegan poet Dominic Berry for two workshops to help you develop your poetic performance and then take part in Contact's Outspoken performance.
These workshops will be a chance for poets to specifically work on delivery, and learn techniques to develop a clear, concise and powerful connection with a theatre audience. Poets taking part in the workshops will then have an opportunity to share what they’ve learned with the Outspoken audience on Thu 26 August 2010.
Anyone wishing to apply must:
1. Be available for and attend all three dates (two workshops and performance).
2. Send an example of their written work, no more than 40 lines of verse, to outspoken@contact-theatre.org by no later than 31 July 2010.
There are a limited number of places on these workshops so applicants are advised to apply early.
