Unfortunately the weather wasn't very kind to us last Saturday at the Dalston Children's Festival. Due to heavy wind and rain the performance of "Falling Up" had to be stopped half-way through - the set nearly flew off and it would have been too dangerous for the performers to continue on the slippery ground. Sadly, the acrobatics and street dance workshops that were supposed to take place after "Falling Up" also had to be cancelled. But at least our youth group got to perform everything they had prepared for the festival before the weather got worse!
Have a look at the photos below for some impressions of our windy performances!
Thanks a lot to all of you who came last Wednesday to Jacksons Lane to see our special indoors version of Falling Up! We had a fantastic time performing at the unique setting of Jacksons Lane and also really enjoyed creating this unique piece!
We are also very happy about the wonderful feedback we got from audience members and critics alike!
Next week we are moving indoors with an experimental way of performing Falling Up – part promenade and part staged performance, in the beautiful building of Jacksons Lane. Below Artistic Director Lina Johansson reflects on her approach to this brand new version:
