Guided by trained artists with international presence, the creative writing masterclasses are led online or in stimulating indoor/outdoor environments, and focus on writing and performance techniques and approaches in a pleasant and interactive manner.

Commissions

This is how we do it! Continue reading

The versatility of a language in its artistic expression (whether in the shape of poems, spoken word or theatrical performances) renders it suitable for any public or occasion. The intricacies of wit, humour, sadness, horror, love carried by the performed piece wrap the message and its intent in a unique manifestation with an entertaining perspective. We’ve been commissioned to do work for publishing houses, journals, private entities and weddings.

If you are interested in commissioning a written piece, performance, or video please contact us at: info@soaring-words.com for more information to this regard.

Performances to private or corporate events

Business and pleasure. Continue reading

Although it would sound atypical to relate corporate events to art and its modern manifests, the combination of the two has been acclaimed and welcomed in the past years to various festivals, summits, conferences and other undertakings alike. We’ve performed at or opened for entities like BPW Bregenz (Austria), BPW Stuttgart (Germany) and Business Networking in Münich (Germany) among others. We are happy to offer bespoke performances of spoken word, poetry, story-telling, story poetry, video screenings and other related artistic formats for your specific occasions.
