About Us

When The Passion Project started, our aim was to create a performance space that focuses solely on the artist. After finishing at music university, I found that a lot of performances are based on social capital and desirability politics. I didn’t know these terms quite yet but I wanted performances to be the...opposite of all that. No need for professionalism, perfectionism or even confidence.

Then the pandemic started, I began to get very sick and things became very wrong.

However, in moments of darkness, I began to concentrate on understanding how infections worked, looking into online performances and developing a strong disability praxis.

Since then, we've held several shows from 2020 - 2024 online and in 2025 we're holding our first radio show.

Our Organisation's Ethos

Focus on [Complete] COVID Safety

We understand that we cannot guarantee COVID safety at an in person show. Therefore we look to find a myriad of ways to ensure online accessibility for our participants and performers.

Disability Justice

We promise to focus on disability justice within the performance space, examine how ableism permeates artistry and we look how we can ease this for our performers/participants.

No Perfectionism, what works for you

We know the anxiety that comes with performing and how divided the creative space can be. The discrepancies between monied artists and marginalised artists is growing larger and larger each day. Which means poorer people don't always have time to practice or prepare. We aim to create a space that is welcoming to any artist at all levels.
