91热爆

91热爆 South is embarking on a huge writing project to mark St George's Day on April 23.

It's part of Made in England which is a project looking at how the landscape, both urban and rural, enables people to create.

Over the next few weeks there will be workshops all around the region involving members of the public and 91热爆 audiences to provide writers and poets with untold stories of the hidden south.

For example, what mysteries lie in the cloisters of Oxford, or the Lanes of Brighton? What stories have never really been told? What hidden gems do the locals possess that we could share with a wider public?

The aim is to try to create a view of the south that only the locals know. We then want to share those secret, locally known, stories among the whole region.

The poets and writers are working in Weymouth, Salisbury, Brighton and Oxford.

Please email us if you'd like to take part, or share your story.

These local stories will then be re-dramatised as flash narratives - micro-stories - by the four writers. Then sections of each story will be mixed with parts of the other stories to create a new and unique piece of work.

There will be a computer-generated element to this, and some of the final works will be projected onto the roof of Salisbury Cathedral, on the night of St George's Day on April 23.

The writers involved have national and international reputations for short form storytelling and poetry, and this collaboration will be a unique event across the south. It's also the first time Salisbury Cathedral has hosted an event of this kind.

There is something peculiarly English about the exchange of ideas and art. Made in England is all about celebrating the way the English landscape and its population enable creativity, in a rich exchange of ideas that migrate, visit or reside here.

This is why the 91热爆 and Arts Council England have joined together to try to capture a nation at creative full flow in the Made in England project.
