The International Producing Surgery: Participatory Work took place on Wednesday 3 November 2021, offering a space to work through real international producing challenges with support from Beckie Darlington and fellow producers.

Dance4, Farnham Maltings, and Beckie Darlington have collated a resource of top tips that came out of this International Producing Surgery to share with other artists and producers.

About Beckie Darlington

Beckie Darlington is a creative producer with over 15 years of experience working across theatre, live art, dance, and queer cabaret. Beckie works closely with artists and organisations to conceive, develop and deliver new work, including participatory art works, festivals, touring theatre performances and installations.
Alongside her producing work, she collaborates as an artist with Andy Field on a series of experimental performance projects with children that aim to initiate intergenerational dialogue and new, more radical modes of civic participation. Their work has taken a range of forms, including a guidebook to St Helens, rooftop conversations about the future in Cairo, Sao Paulo and Beijing, and a local TV news network run entirely by children.

Produced in partnership with Farnham Maltings.
