Do you have something to say? Can you say it in verse – blank or free?
Verb New Voices is looking for three talented artists (two between 18-30
and one of any age) from the north of England to create and perform a
piece of new work for The Verb on Radio 3. The project – created
by Arts Council England and supported by the BBC and organisations
across the North, including New Writing North – aims to generate vibrant
new writing that reflects something unique about Northern culture.
All you have to do to apply is write a statement of why you want to
take part in the project, a professional biography and an outline of the
piece you want to perform. Then record yourself – a mobile phone video
uploaded to Youtube or Vimeo is fine – performing any piece of work (it
doesn’t have to be the piece you want to develop).
Selected artists will receive a bursary of £2,500 and a package of
in-kind support that includes professional development, working with
voice coaches and a fully-funded place on an Arvon residential creative
writing course. Deadline for entries: Friday 13th December 2013.
