Design as Performance featured a diverse programme of live performances and participatory events at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama venues, as well as in and around Cardiff city centre. There was a range of opportunities for professionals, emerging practitioners, students and community groups, and an exciting range of performances and events for audiences to enjoy.
