"If you don't want to go dark (or if you have no performance space), what about a work-in? .. free performances on street corners, professional musicians busking in parks. "Artists Out on the Streets" might be a suitable name. One…"

Nick Sherrard replied to Emma Courtney's discussion Dark measures for drastic days?
