Brave Island: Signal Fires

Brave Island is Ventnor Exchange’s programme of opportunities for 14-25 year olds. You can apply for this opportunity here

If you’re missing live performances, you love storytelling, or you’re just feeling a bit cooped up inside then come and take part in our Signal Fires event.

Signal Fires is a national festival of touring theatre. This Autumn UK theatre touring companies are joining together in a time of crisis to return to the ‘original theatre’ – storytelling around fires – to celebrate our fundamental need as humans to gather and tell stories.

We will be hosting our storytelling event at Monkton Arts in Ryde. It’s the chance for a group of 6 to gather round a real campfire, and listen to original stories created specially by award winning theatre maker Nassim Soleimanpour and 8 powerful writers and curated by Boundless Theatre.

Practical info: The event will take place in a socially distanced environment at Monkton Arts in Ryde. The event will run from 6.30 – 7.30pm. It will be outside, and although we will have a small campfire you will still need to dress warmly.
