BODIES IN URBAN SPACES rehearsal 4
BODIES IN URBAN SPACES is a free outdoor London event that is part of Dance Umbrella 2009 from 16 – 18 October. It is an intriguing trail, in which 20 performers lead the audience through some of London’s most atmospheric public spaces. Live body sculptures are set up quickly and exist fleetingly before the acrobatic performers disengage themselves and move on. The route is revealed as the work progresses, leaving it to the audience to follow the performers and discover the next installation. The colourful body sculptures offer a new and imaginative perspective on well-known spaces and architecture, as well as displaying astounding physical prowess. www.danceumbrella.co.uk

Broken Chain – La Diablesse leads an old drug addict to his death
Broken Chain is video art collaboration with writer Mark Norfolk for the City Speaks project commissioned by Film London/British Broadcasting Corporation. The film uses the Caribbean myth of La Diablesse the temptress as a metaphor for the craving the drug addict has for crack. In this piece the drug addict cannot give up his addiction and it leads to him stealing to feed his habit, even thought he has just come out of jail. This leads ultimately to his death. No one survives after seeing the face of La Diablesse! Visit BlackmanVision for more information http://www.blackmanvision.com/shorts/broken-chain/
