Anyone going to see Forced Ents in Bristol this weekend? I'd love to hitch a ride and pay some gas or share a train under the Severn with some good company ...

MADE IN ROATH

 

Call for Participants:

 

Made in Roath is an arts based community festival, now in its fifth year. Running from 17^th to 24^th October 2013, there will be interventions, experiences, performances and gatherings, taking art to the streets of Roath. There's something for everyone and this year is bigger than ever!

 

We are looking for participants to take part in a public performance on Saturday October 19^th October, time TBC (will be around dusk).

 

SHAME: A PUBLIC GATHERING by Cradeaux Alexander

 

Alexander’s performances look at the history of shaming throughout the world and different cultures. These range from cruel and torturous public executions, ridiculing and public humiliation down to more contemporary and subtle disgracing. There are still many suppressed taboos enforced by state-sponsored moral control and this is what informs the artist’s work.

 

Alexander proposes to work with a large group of performers who will be placed in tableaux on the streets of Roath. The participants will then take part in a procession to the park, where they will form a final group tableau. They will stand en masse, publicly and silently evoking shame / taboo, as much an experience for the audience as for the participant. Part silent protest, part theatrical tableau. Absorbing all, seeing all, explaining nothing. The event will take approximately 2 hours. Anyone over 15 is welcome to apply.

 

 If this peaks your interest and you would like to take part please contact:

 

 madeinroath.performance@gmail.com

 

In return for you time, you will get the chance to work with a London-based artist, develop your performance skills and be part of a public artwork. You will also meet new and exciting people, be an integral part of the Made in Roath Festival and get access to a free cafe reserved just for you and other volunteers for the weekend.

 

See you there!

Hey everyone,

I have an opportunity for 13- 19 year olds to audition for "Same", a piece of brand new writing which we are presenting first in Wales (March 7th/ 8th) and then at the Salisbury Playhouse (first week of May) as part of the National Theatre Connections programme. We have run a week of in- house auditions (Ascendance Theatre Arts) but have been unable to fill all the parts so we are doing an open casting call this Wednesday (16th) at 6pm in Meeting Room 2, Chapter. Students will be presented with scripts from "Same" and put into groups to spend approximately 20 minutes preparing before showing the piece to the audition panel. Auditionees are advised that if successful this piece will be performed at the National later in the year. If you could please spread the word to anyone who might be interested in this opportunity and drop a message to me on here or at ascendancetheatrearts@gmail.com so I can keep an eye on how many people are attending. Thank you everyone! x

NATIONAL THEATRE WALES and PeerGrouP

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT RESIDENCY 

National Theatre Wales are partnering with one of The Netherlands' leading theatre companies working in site-specific theatre: PeerGrouP. Together we will be offering a 5-day artist development residency looking at the approach, in-depth methodologies and ethos of this forward-thinking company. Artists will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in PeerGrouP’s unique practice and find ways to apply it to their own work. PeerGrouP say: "Instead of focusing on what to make in situ, we focus on how to make in situ. How does an artist develop a creative/artistic process, which really connects to and is specific for the site where you're working? These workshops are a way to learn to look at a location with new eyes, but also at your own way of creating work."  We are looking for 8 artists from Wales, working in any discipline with a performance element to their practice, to join PeerGrouP in Powys between 13th and 16th November. Your travel to and from the residency will be provided as well as accommodation for the duration.

To apply please send an expression of interest (text or video link) outlining: Who you are What you do Why you would like to be involved Links to where we can find your work online Email Gavin Porter by 12 noon on 27 September.
