Our digital creative literacy has had an enormous boost during the period of lock down. Formerly niche platforms like ‘Teams’ and ‘Zoom’ have become as familiar as Facebook and Youtube. Many creatives have moved on-line, with a raft of singer songwriters delivering gigs from their couches and cultural heavyweights such as the National Theatre and Sadlers Wells broadcasting shows from their websites. But is this really digital performance and what happens when we go back to normal?

Join stage@leedsDigital for a panel discussion about what constitutes Digital Performance and what the future might look like for digital creatives in the future.
