CALL OUT FOR FESTIVAL PERFORMERS!

6FootStories are looking to expand our pool of performers and creatives for a busy summer of festival bookings and various events. We are still taking bookings for the summer, but we’ll be touring to places like Geronimo, Big Day Out, Valley Fest, Larmer Tree, Boomtown and Green Man.

We are keen to meet new performers interested in outdoor arts, interactive theatre and storytelling. Our work, like much festival performance, crosses genres and forms - in the same weekend a performer may be a game show compère, storyteller, puppet maker and fortune teller. Our performers need to be flexible and willing to get stuck in and immerse themselves in our peculiar worlds. We are often camping at events, so you should also consider this before getting in touch! Do you like eating fried eggs in a field? Then you might just be perfect for us!

We are holding workshop days in London on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th April. At this workshop participants will be trained up in some of our key work:
  • Potato Puppet Playground (mash-up of spud-based arts & crafts & improvised potato performance)
  • Swap Shop Game Show (family game show where teams swap their hidden talents for incredible terrible prizes)
  • The Gypsy Lodge (our signature festival fortune parlour)

We will also be exploring some new ideas for some aquatic themed entertainment, and for our existential alien game show the Intergalactic Circus of Truths. It will be a fun and lively workshop full of improvisation, potatoes and playful interactive madness.

We would love to hear from:
  • Storytellers
  • Comedy performers/compères
  • Arts & crafts enthusiasts
  • Family theatre performers
  • Seasoned festival-goers

If you think you would be interested in joining us this summer for an adventure then please email [email protected] with an introduction to you and your work, a CV, and any links that might be worth looking at. Special consideration will be given to applicants that include potato-based wordplay.

You can see plenty about what we do on this website. The Festivals & Events page will be particularly useful. We look forward to hearing from you!
