Who by fire, who by water
Who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
Who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
Who in February, March, April, May and June
Who’s taking our challenge -
Is it you?
[apologies to Leonard Cohen...]

Wildfire offers writers, poets, MCs, rappers - anyone who wants to have a go - a chance to take the Traverse 10 Minute Challenge. We’ll give you a starting point - like “do a piece for three actors and a tuba” - and you come up with a completely new 10 minute work to be performed in the Bar Cafe. A new challenge every month, new artists taking a chance, with a new resident performance poet to host, plus professional actors and a director to work with. If you’re an artist who’d like to take the challenge, contact Cheryl Martin (cheryl.martin@traverse.co.uk/0131 228 3223) for more details. Wildfire's gonna burn this city...

Wildfire is part of our exciting Monday nights programme in the Bar Cafe along with Noisy Nights and Words Words Words.

The Traverse has done Edinburgh proud.
