Lucy Neal is a theatre maker and writer exploring celebratory events that act as a catalyst for change: from the gifting of a small seed in a six-minute ritual to the staging of a theatre of fire for 20,000 in a London Park. Co-founder Director of the influential London International Festival of Theatre (1981-2005), she has been active in the grassroots Transition movement in Tooting, SW London since 2008. Lucy tutors on The Arvon Writing Course Fierce Words and is a Trustee of the Aluna Foundation. She is author of The Great Imagining - how the arts spark cultural change in Zero Carbon Britain's Making It Happen and a founder 'declarer' of Culture Declares, a global movement of artists and cultural organisations declaring a climate and ecological emergency. She is currently working - as one of four women artists - on Walking Forest a commission for Season for Change and Coventry City of Culture 2021 that draws on the inspiration of trees, the forest ecosystem and creative movements of resistance and change making across the world, past and present. |
