For The Culture
Lyric Hammersmith 24-26 October
For the Culture: Celebrations of Blackness Festival is more than a festival; it’s an act of resistance, a space for joy, reflection, and conversation, a place to champion and celebrate Black British artists, activists, and thinkers.
The Lyric Hammersmith welcome an extraordinary lineup of artists who will take center stage here at the Lyric, including Talawa Theatre Company, Tyrell Williams, The Cocoa Butter Club, and Girls Can’t DJ. These headlining acts will deliver curated shows, events, and workshops as part of this year’s For the Culture Festival.
Over the course of three days, For the Culture will feature theatre, film, music, visual art, food, discussion, and more.

Chunky Move: 4/4
8 & 9 November - Southbank Centre
The UK premiere of this utterly distinct work from one of Australia’s leading companies pushes the boundaries of contemporary dance. As episode after episode builds upon the last, quartets and duets converge and diverge in ever more hypnotic configurations, in a performance that balances unity and individuality.
With backgrounds in krump, freestyle hip-hop, house and contemporary dance techniques, the diversity in the dancers’ artistic backgrounds, coupled with Hamilton’s striking craftsmanship, highlights a uniquely Australian performance.
