M/Others on the Mic
Courses
Inviting m/others to explore their creative voices through performance.
“Finding time to developing interests and skills when in the throws of m/otherhood or grandm/otherhood can be a challenge. Exploring your voice creatively can bring all manner of rewards - renewed connection to your identity, building confidence, being part of a community, not to mention a rush of adrenaline! My M/Others on the Mic course are designed with caring responsibilities in mind - they take place within school hours, children of all ages are always welcome with you, and it’s always okay to show up as you are. I believe it is really important to see their m/others as following their passions and also being brave. To date there have been poetry, songwriting and standup comedy courses. I collaborate with brilliant artists (usually m/others themselves) to work with a small group of m/others over a number of weeks. At the end of each course there is a M/Others on the Mic live show, so there is the option to share new material with an uplifting and supportive audience. All levels of experience are welcome and encouraged.”
