Big Village Digital: Sharing the Past - Developing the Future
Sharing the Past - Developing the Future is an online conversation to shape a manifesto for action for the future and support the development of global majority artists and companies.
Join the conversation as six performance companies from across the UK and Australia discuss what they've discovered on an extended collaborative, global exchange project - Big Village Digital.
On 22nd March (9am GMT/7pm AEST) we will come together in a Zoom Webinar to share our working practices and think about what is needed to support and develop global majority artists and companies across the arts.
Featuring speakers from:
Upswing Aerial (UK)
Casus Circus (Aus)
The Cocoa Butter Club (UK)
Na Djinang Circus (Aus)
Collectif And Then...(UK)
House Of Alexander (Aus)
About Big Village Digital:
Through a series of short films and public online conversations, Big Village Digital profiles and celebrates the work of artists and companies outside of the unspoken cultural values that prioritise the canon of literary theatre and historically, the work of white writers.
Big Village Digital brings together makers who are not only bringing new stories to our creative spaces, but are also pioneering new modes of articulation and expression, using populist art forms like circus and cabaret to create performances led by the body that challenge colonial and class-based notions of art.
Upswing has partnered with Casus Circus (Brisbane, AUS), and a total of six companies, 3 in Australia and 3 in the UK, to create a digital space that highlights their work and considers next steps on supporting global majority artists and companies.
As part of the UK/AUS 2021-22 Season with British Council Australia and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
