Description
May 2026 is 6 years from the first lockdowns and the world standing still. Lockdown babies are in school. Lockdown school kids have finished university. Emergency responses and cultural recovery took different paths on the island since 2020. This interactive session explores where the performing arts sector on the island is at. What were the positive changes that emerged? What challenges are still with us? What is the learning with hindsight from such a critical time for performing arts? Facilitated by Dr. Ali FitzGibbon and using the Long Table approach designed by Split Britches, this session is open to all to attend, join, listen or step up to take a seat at the table where the only item on the menu is conversation.| Period | 27 May 2026 |
