London Heritage Project
As well as performing at Re:Discover Festival, on Monday 27 and Tuesday 28 May, you are invited to contribute to the exhibition taking place in the Old Crypt at St John’s Waterloo. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the themes of the festival and set its direction through:
- Research visits (every other Friday)
- Development sessions (every other Wednesday, 2:30pm to 4pm before weekly rehearsals)
- A two day residency (Thursday 25 and Friday 26 April)
- A five day residency in the week before the festival (Monday 20 to Friday 24 May)
During the project, you’ll document your findings and interests through a research journal and will be supported to present your learnings to an audience at the research sharing on Wednesday 27 March.
Refreshments and travel expenses will be provided for all research visits and residencies.
