Friday Firsts #15: Stay Connected

The first of many, this is a new Yorkshire-wide performing artist showcase of spoken word, dance, music and theatre for independent Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic artists who want to entertain and provoke, experiment, question and engage.

This evening brings together a range of diverse artists and their audience to have a dialogue about new work; What moves us? Who is it for? Where should it go next?

Sustained Theatre Artists Yorkshire (STAY) exists to enable the development of quality performance work, enable artists to become economic and does so in the context of the national Sustained Theatre Network.

STAY Creative Partnership is working with West Yorkshire Playhouse, Phoenix Dance Theatre and Yorkshire Dance to establish a programme of creative artist development which will lead to the opening of new dedicated making-space and offices at Yorkshire Dance, autumn 2013.
