Lunchtime Talk: Resilience in the Creative Industries - Theatre, AR and Community Arts

Tomasin Cuthbert Menes, Creative Producer at Soap Soup Arts, on two decades of making a living as a creative practitioner in Britain - theatre design, puppetry, fine art, illustration, directing, community arts and festival programming - and on what has changed in the last few years, with funding scarce, live-art audiences thinner, arts teaching cut back in schools, and AI arriving on top of Brexit and COVID. Part of the Pervasive Media Studio's weekly Lunchtime Talks, 13:00 to 14:00 at the Watershed. Free, in the Studio event space and live-streamed on YouTube; booking is only needed for the in-person seats. Open Studio Friday runs 10:00 to 17:00 around it, so you can use a desk in the Studio either side.
