Creative Writing Workshop

Naomi Wood invites you to a FREE creative writing workshop with Bold Mellon. The workshop will explore embracing imperfection in creativity and using the raw material of your life experience to tell stories. The session will encourage a playful approach to the transformative power of performance poetry and will cover a diverse range of skills and techniques focusing on both writing and performance presentation, whilst centring our stories of queer identity. We will explore how those identities intersect with each other and the wider world.

Naomi Wood is a multi-disciplinary performance artist with an MA in Creative and Critical writing. She creates work that incites riotous acts of joyful disobedience and celebrates empowerment and rebellion, merging the circus with storytelling and theatre performance with poetry. Her solo show and poetry book Gobbess is a moving and uplifting exploration of the journey towards embracing imperfection.
