Mandy Tan and Malachi Briant will be presenting While Remembering on 30 May (Tue), a piece that physicalises the feeling of nostalgia and memory and invites the audience to dive into their memories and notice the questions and emotions that arise.
The two young emerging artists connected over their shared passion for contact improvisation whilst studying at TL and have since choreographed and performed together. A work-in-progress showing of While Remembering was presented at Blue Elephant Theatre earlier in February.

Led by Francesca Matthys, Stepping in Situ is a workshop informed by the practitioners known South African lineage, spiritual and artistic practice. Workshop participants will be guided through a compassionate yet rigorous practice encompassing pelvis explorations, acknowledging the pelvis as a site that holds ancestral wisdoms, intuition and identity, as well as original adaptations of the Nama Stap Dance. The workshop will encourage heat in your bodies through movement as well as moments of breath, introspection, writing, grounding, play and connection to intuition through an awareness of ancestry. This developing practice aims to offer all individuals an opportunity to delve deeper into their nuanced ways of connecting to ancestry through the body. Thus it also encourages alternative routes for exploring our ever-changing identities and an affirmation and validation within the self.
All bodies are welcome, even if you don’t move or dance very often but are interested in the practice and the potential of moving your body.
Dates and times:
10 May - 31 May 2023
Every Wednesday, 7-9pm at London Performance Studios
