PACT Centre for Emerging Artists will present PACT Salon: RIOT!, a night of transformative realisation and revolution, on 9th November.
RIOT! champions artists who are redefining the arts scene - those who are bold enough to protest by changing a space, holding a stance and making noise. This night of ephemeral performance and art will inspire audiences to look within themselves and reflect on their contribution to their communities and wider conversations.
As the world prepares to enter a new decade, RIOT! aims to confront and unite while putting the attention on the things that matter and honoring our shared responsibilities.
RIOT! is part of PACT's celebrated Salon series - one night only mini festivals showcasing eclectic new works - and is curated by Cheryn Frost and Vivienne Linsley.
Frost said, "If riots arise because certain populations are not given a voice or are not treated equally, how do we make sure we are prioritising those voices? RIOT! is bringing us together to transform as a collective. The microphone is on. We will rise. We will RIOT!"
