MORE ABOUT PHRASED & CONFUSED

Phrased & Confused is a spoken word and music project that combines development
opportunities for live literature promoters/producers with a live tour featuring
singer-songwriters Emma Pollock (The Delgados) and Chris T-T, poet Brendan Cleary
and spoken word duo Sore Throat.

During previous Phrased & Confused projects, our research demonstrated a lack of
producers/promoters with the skills and networks necessary to produce quality live
literature events and tours. We wanted to do something about it so, as part of
this year’s tour, we are running a development programme that will give potential
and emerging producers/promoters opportunities to work with our tour venues,
provide training and support for them and expand their networks.

HOW IT WORKS?

At each tour date we will be holding a free seminar/networking event for regional
live literature ‘activists’ including promoters, producers, editors, writers/
performers. Producers/promoters that attend the seminar will be invited to submit
their ideas for working with the host venue.
We will work with each of the tour venues to identify one producer with whom they
will work during 2007 providing a real-life professional development opportunity
for each chosen producer. As part of their professional development they will be
supported in submitting an Arts Council England ‘Grants for the Arts’ application
to their regional office. Alongside this selected producers will also be invited
to a series of training sessions to help equip them with the skills they need to
produce their project.
These training sessions will also be open for application to any producer/promoter
who attends the initial seminar.
