Cabaret is excited to officially announce: [scream] the gallery project.

The gallery project is a way for us to bring in more people throughout the community and encourage personal artistic expression.

This project is a way for us to create art online individually yet still be able to present together. 

How it works:

The creation committee will be releasing a picture or painting every month. We are asking for people to respond to this piece of art with their own art. We encourage people to submit artwork of any kind. This could be a song, a dance, a painting, a poem, etc. We want to encourage and celebrate personal expression to create a variety of incredible works. 

The work will be displayed in an online gallery format, where for the month of the project the work will be visible, similar to a limited art gallery showing. 

What to submit:

You can submit whatever type of work you want in whatever format (written work, a recorded video, a painting). Here are some examples of things to submit:

A reading of poetry

A short video of a monologue

A painting inspired by the image

A recording of a song  

How to submit:

We are accepting submissions until 11:59 PM on October 5th, 2020.

Please fill out the form and then send your submissions to artistic.cabarettheatre@gmail.com!

In the submission include your name, the title of your piece (i.e. your given title, or if it is someone else's work [a song, piece of script, etc.] please credit that work) and any further comments/description you would like to include!

If you are submitting a video: Submit it as MP4 file, or through google drive.

The Image:

For this month we are asking you to respond to the following image: [The Scream] is the popular name given to a composition created by Norwegian Expressionist artist Edvard Munch in 1893. The original German title given by Munch to his work was Der Schrei der Natur (The Scream of Nature), and the Norwegian title is Skrik (Shriek). The agonized face in the painting has become one of the most iconic images of art, seen as symbolizing the anxiety of the human condition.
