Welcome to We Are Vocal – bringing voice to the spoken word
Though we perhaps haven’t been able to travel to the USA as much as we might have liked in the past year, this spoken word show is just the transportation needed to become immersed in current American Life. From baseball to outer space, this lively event features performance artists, playwrights, composers, musical theatre performers, emerging talent, gender-driven narratives, singers, fantasy, drama, comedy, tragedy, jazz, opera, hip-hop and American art; creators from across the 52 states who are bringing their thought-provoking narratives on travel sustainability and diversity to the small UK screen.
