Red Room Plays for Change, August 2014

The Red Room is calling on ALL MUSICIANS to make their own musical tribute at the Red Room on Saturday, September 20th. The Red Room is proud to play host to the global music movement, Playing for Change (www.playingforchange.com)

As part of our monthly Stage Time & Wine event celebrating the spoken word and performance arts through poem, song, rhyme, dance, comedy and more, we encourage the musically inclined to step up!

Playing for Change’s mission is to raise money around the world so more and more music schools can be built in impoverished areas! Through music, children rise out of poverty.

Musicians from all around the world, gather and perform. The money they raise is sent to the Playing for Change Foundation (www.playingforchange.org)

On Saturday, September 20th, we invite all musicians to sign up, perform and be part of the change. The Red Room will film the performers and link the videos onto the Playing for Change site as well as on Youtube.

The Red Room will also donate 50% of the door to the Playing for Change Foundation!

A few things to remember:

Performers only have 5 minutes to share
The Red Room is a listening environment. We ask you to honour the people on stage by actively listening.
The Red Room is a green environment. Please bring, borrow, or buy one of our awesome, groovy bamboo mugs as your drinking vessel of choice. Have our fabulous artists paint it for It will remain forever, yours and yours alone (true love).
We welcome sharing. We’ll make the stew, you bring the wine (or any other fantastically creative creations. We’ll ooh and aaah). Deal?

Come as early as possible so that everyone gets a chance to perform. Yay! We’re uber-excited about seeing you on Saturday where you’ll be PLAYING FOR CHANGE!!!

紅房號召所有的音樂家於9月20日（六）前來演奏。紅房很驕傲地主辦一場全球性的音樂活動—為改變而奏。

此活動與我們的月聚會Stage Time & Wine一同舉辦，目的是慶祝聲音表演以及聆聽的文化。藉由詩歌、歌曲、韻文、舞蹈、喜劇表演等表演形式，我們鼓勵音樂表演者一同響應！

“為改變而奏”的活動目的是為了在世界各地募款，幫助貧窮地區建立更多的音樂學校。有了音樂，孩子的生命軌跡將會有所不同。

全世界的音樂家齊聚一堂，為同一理念演奏。所募得的款項將會全數給予為改變而奏基金會。

9月20日禮拜六當天，我們邀請所有音樂家共襄盛舉，表演並成為改變世界的一部份。紅房將會錄下所有表演並將影片上傳到“為改變而奏”官網以及Youtube.

此外，紅房也會將當日活動入場費的50%捐給為改變而奏基金會！

一些小提醒：

1.表演者的演奏時間固定為五分鐘，請注意時間限制！讓大家都有上台的機會。

2.紅房是一個聆聽的環境。我們請求大家尊重台上的表演者，聆聽是最好的尊重。

3.紅房也是倡導環保的環境。請帶、借或當場買一個竹杯作為您喝飲料的容器，現場也有藝術家會為您彩繪獨一無二、此生唯一的竹杯。

4.我們鼓勵分享。我們將會製作炖菜湯，你們可以帶酒（或是任何飲料、有創意的食物，我們會負責尖叫跟驚呼！）好嗎？

5.請儘早前來，大家才可以及早開始表演，能上台的人也就越多。我們非常期待禮拜六的時候見到你！一起來為改變演奏吧！
