About the event
Mapping the Closet with SCAMP
A Story Lab event by The Writers’ Block
6-8pm on 26th May
This event takes place at: Trevow Chapel
Tickets £5
What does it mean to play with identity to invent an alter ego or to enter a space in the shoes you’ve always longed to wear?
How do ideas like gender, presentation, or profession shape who we believe ourselves to be? And what happens when we begin to question, stretch, or reimagine those roles?
Join us at Trevow Chapel for this workshop led by drag artist Scamp, inspired by what3words, where we’ll explore identity as something living, shifting, and creative. Just as three simple words can locate a precise place in the world, we’ll use language, movement, and imagination to map new dimensions of ourselves.
Through embodied exercises, guided writing prompts, and the wisdom of your own lived experience, you’ll experiment with new ways of expressing yourself and relating to others. Bring the clothes you’ve always longed to wear, that bold piece tucked away at the back of your closet, the outfit that never quite found its moment. This is its moment.
Scamp is a designer/drag artist and puppet maker and shaker, with a focus on site-specific, queer and accessibility-led work. They are co-founder of Blooom Cornwall and Falmouth Queer club and host/run nights regularly with Kernow Drag Collective.
