It’s not as we know it – but we will still use the project to generate new original creative ideas and then work together to make a finished ‘show’ to share with the public.
This year’s THEME is:
Voices of a Changing Earth
We are thinking about different points of view on our natural world and the changes that we see, that we don’t see and that we’d like to see!
Over the next 13 weeks we will run workshops twice a week:
Mondays from 4th May; 6pm – 8pm
Wednesdays from 6th May; 3pm – 5pm
We aren’t tied to our own towns any more, so you can sign up for either session, but there will be limited places on each SO YOU HAVE TO SIGN UP.
Bear in mind:
- We encourage younger participants to come to the Wednesday sessions, and older to the Mondays.
- We encourage siblings in the same household to either sign up to different sessions, or to use different devices, so you can be in different breakout rooms during the session.
If there are spare places you can come to both sessions.
Weeks 1 – 4: Generating ideas (a bit like we used to do at the Young Writers’ Camp) and getting used to working online & finding out what people want.
Weeks 5 – 13: Focusing on skills and choosing things to work on. These sessions could include song writing, script writing, online music, filming, art, instrumental tuition – give us ideas in the first 4 weeks and we will plan from there.
Summer School??
At this point we have no idea if we can run a ‘normal’ Summer School, so we are keeping an open mind. We may be able to meet for workshops, but not open a show to an audience. We may be out of lockdown, or still living with bits of it – we will have to think creatively to work out what this year’s ‘show’ will look like…
If you didn’t come the taster session on Friday 17th April you will need to sign up to our online workshop guidelines before you can join the project. Click here to see the guidelines.
