THE   CAMPSITE (2012-2016)
FIELD TRIP

Role:
Art Director, Performer & Core Team


The Campsite is a mobile pop-up venue: a collection of vehicles and tents, all of which become venues for theatre, music, poetry, film and art installations.  We aim to showcase and nurture artists from a range of disciplines and to support experimental and bold new work for small spaces.

Each time The Campsite assembles, it is different. To date, we have pitched up at National History Museum, Cambridge Museums, Pulse Festival Ipswich, Wilderness Festival, Latitude Festival, Tall Ships Falmouth, and two separate Performer Artist Retreats at The Lizard, Cornwall. Attendees nominated by venues nationwide.
