In a final celebration of all things Theatre Bristol, we`re collecting personal stories of how our organisation has influenced your life, your work, your career.
We could have collected the data to show how many artist support sessions we have provided, how many people interacted with our various websites, how many people read our newsletters, or how many freelancers have received bursaries or funding or commissions through us. But these numbers wouldn`t really tell our story.
Instead, inspired by the outpouring of responses following our closure announcement, we want to collect and share the individual stories, which we believe is where the true value lies in the work we do. Sometimes, we call this `the invisible work` or `the quiet work`. But we don`t want it to remain invisible or quiet anymore.
Tell us your Theatre Bristol story using the link in bio, or send us a voice note on 07549 412900. Today is your last chance.
