Mischief Makers’ Protest Camp: August 7th and 8th, 2010.
Castlefield Arena.
The Mischief Makers return to The Big Chill with the acclaimed Protest Camp. We will be situated next to the Words In Motion Tent, Saturday and Sunday, 12 – 5 p.m.
We invite passers by to come and spend time with us to visualise their innermost desires and demands! At our camp, slogans can materialise into cloth banners, placards and sculptural forms. Our peg doll demonstrators will be taking to the hills in our spectacular new installation piece ‘Doll Mountain’, to which participants will be invited to make and add their own peg self. Over the weekend this colourful spectacle will unfold in rebellious creativity!
Rumours of a Revolutionary Tea Dance on Saturday night are now confirmed. There will be tea drinking, plotting, strumming and bespoke waltzing amidst the banners and peg dolls. 9 – 11p.m.
Sunday at 1 – 1.45 pm will see the young people of Ledburys’ John Masefield School rise up and demand to be heard as they march and rally at the Words In Motion tent. We are also proud to present the JMS based band Fozwan and the Superior Siblings,folk-pop at its finest.
The Mischief Makers are artist educators, Nicola Godlieb and Sarah Conway Dyer. We run idea-driven, conceptual arts projects, which utilise and respond to the environment and users of a given space. This is the second year of our Protest Camp, which is also appearing at the Edinburgh Fringe.
