Dartington Campus Readings

A brand new series of four Thursday evening performances dedicated to reading begins at the Dartington Campus in January 2009. The series will feature three generations of some of the most innovative and dynamic contemporary writers, ranging from those who have published their first major collection in the last few years to those who have many books behind them. The series opens on Thursday 22 January with performances by Caroline Bergvall and Andrea Brady (image).

The performances will take place in Studio 3, one of the best technically-equipped studios in the region, and will include highly thoughtful and measured readings, dynamic vocal performances, as well as engagements with a range of audio-visual media. The events will be open to the public, free of charge, and there will be plenty of opportunity for extended post-reading discussion and debate.
