Unsuspecting public to be treated to surprise ‘flash-mob’ theatre productions on the streets of Brighton.
From August 6-9, research project Liveable Lives will host performances in public spaces to explore the idea of a life that is liveable rather than just bearable for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) in India and the UK.
Liveable Lives is an international research project led by the University of Brighton. Since November 2014, LGBTQ people have been sharing their ideas and experiences of what makes life at interactive workshops and through the project’s website liveablelives.org.uk.
Experienced queer activists and street theatre practitioners have already organised performances in Kolkata, India, and in August they will travel to run a series of one-day workshops in Brighton.
Volunteers will share their stories and experiences, and design a 5-to-10-minute performance to perform somewhere in Brighton.
Audience reactions and interactions will be encouraged, and refreshments will be provided.
Anyone identifying within LGBTQ (including but not limited to lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer people) is invited to take part.
