Entertainment Value - Workshop
DEADLINE CLOSED
DIY 8: 2011 - Call for Participants
Bridging the gap between academic and trash, cabaret and gallery, booze and rooibos.
Project summary:
Entertainment Value is a two day skills sharing workshop with artists from cabaret, trash or low art practices in collaboration with live artists, academic or institution based practitioners. The workshop will be led by Scottee and result in an informal sharing of new work created over the two days. Entertainment Value will aim to bridge the gaps between academic and trash, cabaret and gallery, booze and rooibos. The workshop will focus on artistic practice (eg how a live artist creates work as distinct from a cabaret performer) and future collaboration. We will also think about how these different worlds can co exist, inhabit and create together to develop some new working relationships across the sector.
Dates: Thursday 8 and Friday 9 September, 2011
Times: 10am - 3pm
Location: London, venue TBC
Application procedure:
Applications are welcome from a broad range of artists, including cabaret or trash practitioners, as well as live artists, academic or institution based practitioners. Applicants should send a short bio & some examples of their work (youtube, jpgs etc) to info@scottee.co.uk.
Application deadline: Friday 15 July, 2011

EYHO: Edinburgh Fringe Festival
British cabaret is thriving!
Girls in fascinators and nipple tassels gallivant around like extras
from Moulin Rouge & everybody loves to hear Radiohead's Creep on a
Ukulele! - frankly we're sick of it.
After the success of our
five star (WhatsOnstage) show last year we are back with our unique
blend of performance cabaret and ready to give light entertainment some
gravitas. Expect fax machines, ipad...s, OHP’s & cynicism.
