The deadline for applications to participate in the workshops is 5pm on 30th August, 2010.

Creative Spaces will explore the potentials of dialogue and creative collaboration within the context of Performing Idea, the first year of Performance Matters, a three-year creative research project rethinking why performance matters through the matter of performance. Performance Matters is a collaboration between the Live Art Development Agency, Goldsmiths, University of London, and Roehampton University, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

Performing Idea is a series of events exploring the shifting relations between performance practice and discourse, event and writing, through a public programme of workshops, presentations, screenings and a symposium from 2nd to 9th October 2010.
Full details of the Performing Idea programme can be found at www.thisisperformancematters.co.uk

Each practical workshop has space for 15 participants and includes unlimited access to the five-day Performing Idea international symposium.
