Word Circus was a 3 day residency model whereby a lead spoken word artist invited a range of emerging artists to collaborate over the time limited period to make a live multimedia show based on a specific theme.
Piloted as part of our Word Circus @The Round residency, Ouseburn, Newcastle (2008). Work so far has included The Dead That Never Lived, a funeral for deceased fictional characters (Lead: Ross Sutherland) and Hand Me Down, a charity shop journey through the ethics of clothes manufacturing, exploitation and the fashion industry (Lead: Inua Ellams).
