Humblebee Creative are commissioning performers, curators, facilitators and academics with experience of the care system for a new indoor spoken word festival, Toybox Live!
Theme: Bri-tish Childhood
Date: Saturday 11th April 2020 (Daytime)
Venue: Rich Mix
Event age guidance: 13+
Fee: Starting from £250. Fee is dependant on previous experience and length of performance/talk.
As this is a spoken word festival, the focus of your proposal should be literature/voice/translation/spoken word and its relationship to Bri-tish Childhood. We are open to other art forms being presented, as long as they follow the main themes of the festival. This event is a celebration and ownership of our experiences.
Humblebee Creative particularly welcome proposals from women, BAME backgrounds & care leavers with disabilities. We also welcome submissions that represent care leavers from from all generations; we would like to represent the voices of both the older and younger generation of care experienced people. We will also consider applications representing children/young people in care that would like to take part. All staff on the project are DBS checked.
To apply, please send your CV, proposal (no more than 1 side of A4), and photos/videos of your work to
info@humblebeecreative.org
