Project Description
Home Live Writing is an ongoing series of initiatives for writers based in the South East who wish to learn more about writing critical responses to live performance.
Coastal Undercurrents
The first Home Live Writing project entitled Coastal Undercurrents ran parallel with our programme of live events at the 2018 Coastal Currents Arts Festival in Hastings.
Six writers were chosen from an open call to write a response to a performance they experienced at one of the following Home Live Art events: New Queers on the Block or Performance Salon
Prior to these events the writers attended a workshop run by critic, curator and academic Diana Damian Martin and performance writer and artist Bojana Janković from Critical Interruptions.
The day-long workshop explored writing and criticism in relation to performance and provided reading and resources to participants for inspiration and further insight.
The final written critical responses will be published on the Home Live Art website and social media very soon – so watch this space!
2019
The second Home Live Writing project will happen spring 2019.
It will be open to aspiring writers of whatever standard, experience or ambition – previous knowledge in either critical writing or experimental performance is desirable but most definitely not essential
