From 2013 – 2016, Willing Participant whipped up urgent poetic responses to crazy shit that happened. During an initial meeting, participants worked with ringleaders to research a pressing event and craft a performative reply, which we called a “response.” The group and others then performed the response for the general public within the following week.
