FU*K BIG SOCIEY.
THIS IS DO OR DIE FOR EYHO.
We are a collective of performers who promote progressive, inclusive & accessible cabaret & performance.?We produce engaging performance events in London & across the UK. We celebrate & encourage work from pioneering performers across the world.
Over the last three years we have created 36 live events in five different cities, developed two full productions and written a new piece that will debut in November 2011. 80% of this work has been self funded - this means our collective have worked for free with the aim of bringing new, challenging and highly political work to non-theatre goers across the country.
This year we would like to return to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to help develop our work, strengthen our company, add diversity to the festival and most importantly begin to present our work to producers across the world - we want to send our message way past the M25!
We have managed to source 800 and over 3000 in support in kind from our venue but lack an extra 1500(ish) to make it happen. This year our show is highly interactive: we are installing webcams so our work is steamed across the world, we will be using twitter feeds so the audience can direct the show to their liking and mixing old media like OHP's, fax machines & slide projectors with new media like ipads and digital hand-held projectors. In keeping with this idea of 'this is your show' we have decided to let our audience decide if we are able / should produce this show - you can do this by donating on this page.
The money donated will mean EYHO are able to continue this work. We have secured a two year deal with a venue that will be able to support us until 2012, without sounding like a storyline in Glee - If this show doesnt happen, we dont get the deal. Do or Die.We have secured most of what we need but need a little extra nudge.
If you can, please do.
