Our Artistic Director, Evie, was awarded DYCP funding in 2024 to add and embed new digital and multimedia skills into their practice as a Queer Neurodivergent self-producing performance artist to increase the accessibility, innovation and ambition of their work.​

​

Since then, we received Arts Council funding (woooop), and our Outreach programme has been underway to find out what story we would like to tell:

 

This is what we have got so far :

 

In this dystopian world, when people die, some are selected to join ‘The Forest’ both virtually (their voice & mind) and physically (their DNA is distilled into seedlings), creating a living archive of the deceased. Set against a backdrop of government-enforced rewilding in a rural, working-class town, our protagonist, grieving her late Mother, is forced to make life-altering decisions. Supported by the audience—our “survivors”— she is faced with questions of immortality, eugenics, and what limits you can be pushed to in the wake of grief and loss.

​

We are now seeking a talented Writer to work with our young people’s focus group to develop their vision for a new online Choose Your Own Adventure experience, Second Nature, in partnership with The Broadway Cinema in Nottingham.

 

If you have a passion for climate change and climate justice, new immersive digital forms of storytelling, and empowering young people’s creative voices, this role might be for you!
