Getting started... always fun and exciting

Welcome to Riot Art!

How exciting it always is to get something started! However new this may seem to you, the rioting started almost a year ago, in a lovely Edinburgh attic with views to the magnificent Castle. But you must be wondering what has led you here, to this sad looking blog with no entries yet? Well, don't worry, all in good time! It'll all get explained rather soon, I dare say somewhere around July 2011.

For now, let me explain that Riot Art is an idea, a little seed of creativity that is getting ready to emerge and shape into something beautiful and rather exciting. You guessed right, it has something to do with Art - and a lot with Rioting - but most importantly it has much, much to do with you and everyone surrounding you. With your wishes, your dreams, you laughter, your voice...

Let's leave it at that for now, but will give you a clue of what is yet to come through the words of the great Augusto Boal...

"Theatre can help us build our future rather than just waiting for it"

Excited?
