The Complete Reworks of Shakespeare: A Live Art William Shake-up
http://www.bristolshakespeare.org.uk/
The Bristol Shakespeare Festival (BSF) is a not for profit organisation run
by a team of dedicated volunteers passionate about bringing the freshest,
most exciting productions of Shakespearešs plays to some of Bristolšs most
beautiful and unusual spaces every summer during the month of July. We are
passionate about bringing Shakespearešs timeless stories to life in ways
which are accessible to and enjoyable for a new generation of audiences.
This year aims to be the biggest and best yet and with a diverse programme
of performance, education events, projects, public lectures and engagement.
As a part of our exciting programme, the BSF, in partnership with Colston
Hall, will showcase a live art platform event for UK-based artists from a
range of different arts backgrounds.
We are offering the challenge of presenting a 15-20 minute performance/
presentation based on any of Shakespearešs works in order to explore the
concept of ŗShakespearešs timelessness˛.
If you have any experimental ideas that you would like to develop we would
like to invite you to develop something during June 2012 for presentation on
the 7 July as a part of the festival at Colston Hall. It could be a short
performance, a durational piece or intervention, a performance to video, a
piece of dance or even a piece of cartoon animation.
The aim will be to see how Shakespearešs ideas, words and texts can strongly
engage with topical issues and how something written and performed 400 years
ago can continue to collide with our society today.
