Inn Crowd Call Out 2019
INN CROWD – LIVE LITERATURE IN PUBS AND COMMUNITY SPACES
Calling Live Literature Performers: We want your show!
‘The Inn Crowd is a brilliant project. It supports and enables performers to make work, helps us reach new audiences, and promotes live literature across the UK. Get involved!’ Sophia Walker
INN CROWD is a programme of high quality live literature performances touring to rural pubs across the UK from 2019-2022. It helps reinforce pubs as central to rural community life by bringing exceptional cultural experiences to new audiences.
INN CROWD offers funding, bookings, development support, and publicity to support brilliant live literature artists.
Shows, sets or performances may include elements of theatre, poetry, spoken word, storytelling, literary adaptation, comedy, live art and audience participation … but the starting point for performances must be written or composed text.
We are looking for:
Reshape: shows, sets or performances that have been fully or partially developed and can be reshaped to suit performance in pub and other community settings.
Co-Production: ideas for new shows, sets or performances that can be developed with time and assistance from the Inn Crowd consortium.
Ready-to-Go: show, sets, or performances already developed and with a performance record, suitable for rural touring pub setting. You can contact us at anytime with a Ready-to-Go proposal.
