MicroPerformance and MicroTalks are a series of curated performances and talks which use an intimate format; a little like speed-dating, the performer interacts directly with the audience around a table in a bar or cafe, the audience moving between performers throughout the night. MicroPerformance events have taken place in London and will be ongoing throughout 2009/10. MicroTalks occurred as a series at West Dean College during the winter of 08/09, and may be repeated in other contexts where appropriate.
