Programming involves the organsiation, scheduling and booking performers for any kind of amplified 'stage'.

Programming at a local action/event

You may want to put together a programming/stage team if you are running a mic for speeches and other amplified performances as part of a march/occupation/protest event.

The team would do the following:

  • Book the speakers and other performers such as musicians
  • Liaise with teams who would bring the amplification and man it on the day.
  • Stage manage the mic by receiving speakers and performers as they arrive and organising them to perform at the right time.
  • Book MCs who host the mic.

Resources

On the Arts shelf is a book about Music and Performance to help you connect with all kinds of artists from spoken work to music to more theatrical groups.
