ABOUT | LOVE+ Community Programme

​

From December 2022 until the end of March 2023, as part of the production of The Village, the collective ran a series of free workshops with LGBTQ+ groups, East Asian communities, and local residents through a programme called LOVE+. Participants in PERFORMANCE+ had the opportunity to learn how to act, dance, and prepare to perform in front of an audience, while participants in DESIGN+ learnt how to design lighting, sound, and sets for the live show.

​

Together, we co-created THE VILLAGE, a multi-location immersive theatre piece featuring three different routes and narratives set across multiple locations in Soho and Chinatown, including independent businesses at risk of disappearing. The project celebrated the diversity and tolerance of Soho’s local community and independent businesses, featuring narratives inspired by real voices and performed in unique locations throughout the area.
