Theatre

Transit - London Theatre

How do you pack a life into 23 kilograms? One item at a time. Transit is an award-winning, genre-bending investigation of identity, belonging and migration. Told through a series of vignettes utilising physical theatre, multilingual performance, poetry, dance, multimedia, practical lights and music, Transit delicately navigates the feeling of being ‘too foreign for here, too foreign for home.’ From the endless cycle of unpacking and repacking to wondering when you can stop being considered ‘a foreigner’ to building community and hope amidst uncertainty, this deeply human piece is a love letter to anyone who has ever moved away from home. Based on true stories gathered from migrants across the UK, Transit asks: what does it mean to settle in the space between languages, cultures and identities? All performances of Transit are creatively captioned.

Low-Impact Jazz

Jazz is a huge genre, and so in our class we draw emphasis from many aspects, including classic jazz (think Fame), Fosse (like Chicago), street dance, and musical theatre to name a few styles. This is a dance class for those who love to strut to pop, jazz or musical theatre tunes, while benefitting from body conditioning and jazz technique.
