What do you bring to the table?

We’re inviting performers, musicians, circus acts, dancers, culinary creatives, poets and more to join us in hosting a week unlike any other alongside 50+ like-minded collaborators.
Whether you’ve got a full act or just an idea, we want to hear from you.
Categories we’re accepting include (but aren’t limited to):
– Musicians & sound artists
– Dancers & movement acts
– Circus & cabaret performers
– Spoken word, poets, drag artists
– Culinary creatives
– Live art, experimental or interactive work
– Actors
– Filmmakers & moving image artists
– Unclassifiable brilliance — surprise us
Thursday 5th June is a dedicated queer-friendly night – we especially welcome alternative and LGBTQ+ performance proposals for this evening.
