4. Spring Trends
Ok so I know we predominately speak about theatre but fashion is also important! Especially when you have press nights for theatre shows or for Film premiers.
'Ethnic' fashion. African prints have always been around, but they have become the latest fashion trend on the catwalk. So wear your Kente prints with pride!
great contemporary African print dresses...

5. Lidos
It is constantly raining in England, the sun always teases us only giving us small kisses here and there. However when it does reach 25 degrees, why not spend an afternoon at the Lido. You can read the latest play by Roy Williams or whatever takes your fancy and enjoy the splashing sounds of water.
Brockwell Lido
Tooting Bec Lido
London Fields Lido

9. Soho Interact:
Scratch Interact is a night for work in development, curated by Glue.
Artists making interactive encounters will be tucked into the Soho's offices, corridors and even toilet cubicles, inviting you to break up with them, dance with them, take walks with them, and much more.
10. INSPIRATION
As a new company we are always looking for inspiration from all different art forms. We obviously look, listen and learn from the best:
we would like to introduce you to:
APPAU JUNIOR BOAKYE- YIADOM
USING HIS STUDIO AS A STAGE AND EVERYDAY OBJECTS AS CHARACTERS, A PERFORMANCE ENVIRONMENT IS CREATED. CHARGED WITH MEDITATIVE AND POETIC ACTION CREATING SITUATIONS WITH ACCESSIBLE OBJECTS, WHICH ARE ACTIVATED DURING A BRIEF PERFORMANCE. THE RESULT IS FILMED, PHOTOGRAPHED AND RE-ENACTED AS INSTILLATIONS THAT MAKE UP A RECORD AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE WORK AS A WHOLE. THIS PROCESS EVOKES A TIMELESS STATE, ACCENTUATED FURTHER BY THE ARTIST’S INCLINATION TOWARD NON-SPECIFIC MATERIALS.
