Feed The Art is Polyglot's s cultural model for replenishment and appraisal.
Feed The Art injects new energy and ideas, and ensures a culture of questioning and examination leading to outstanding theatre making and organisational sustainability. It is a conscious approach to embedding dialogue with artistic peers, participants and audiences within the developmental journey of an arts project, and bringing in similar stimulus to ensure best practise in our management practices.
We invite catalyst artists into the rehearsal room who contribute provocations to artform exploration, we engage with criticism from outside eye artists who assess our work through a specialised lens. We value continual improvement, engaging in artistic conversations with our peers; we recognise the need to value and give time to exchange of ideas as an important part of all our work.
There are five areas of Feed The Art that sit across the company's activities, from management to making.
As Feed The Art supports and challenges our arts practice, so it supports and challenge throughout the whole organisation, bringing the same model of outside criticism, provocation of ideas and continual improvement into the business practises of the company.
Feed The Art is a way of becoming accustomed to seeking feedback on all levels of company activity; habitually examining all outcomes of the company for their quality and with an eye on continual improvement.
Feed The Art supports the need for replenishment within arts practice, stimulus at every stage of project development and connection within the arts community and it provides a wide range of ways of achieving this.
