Regent's Park Open Air Theatre announced the 16-dancer cast for A LIFE IN FOUR SEASONS, a contemporary reimagining of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons directed by Tinuke Craig with choreography by Alexzandra Sarmiento.
Featuring new gig theatre, new plays, immersive theatre experiences, dance, comedy, and physical performance The Lowry, Salford has announced its Contemporary Season for Spring 2024.
Adapted to be a socially distanced duet for one day only at GDIF, Upswing's dance-circus hybrid uses dance and acrobatics to playfully challenge our expectations of an intergenerational relationship.
We had a chat with lighting designer Neil Austin and playwright Chinonyerem Odimba to discuss the groundbreaking work done by Freelancers Make Theatre Work, an organisation that advocates for the rights of freelance workers in theatre. We learned their thoughts about the current artistic climate in the UK, where they see the industry going, and what so desperately needs to change.
Playfully poking at our expectations of relationships between ages and genders using dance, circus, and sound, Upswing's new dance-circus hybrid will be touring to arts festivals this summer. With Upswing's characteristic warmth and lightness of touch in gently introducing provocative issues to people of all ages, Catch Me plays with the first assumptions that people make when they see a couple who are of different generations, race and genders. The outdoor show is set in a teetering installation of 30 intricately balanced chairs, which will remain in situ between performances. Artistic Director Vicki Amedume was inspired to make the show after observing people's reactions to her brother, and the show continues Upswing's exploration of identity, and how this can be subverted and reinforced through performance.
