Open Art Surgery - September 2024

 

Open Art Surgery returns for its second London show of 2024 at Sadler’s Wells and invites you to delve into the mind and souls of some of the finest hip hop artists as they dare to try something new, dangerous and exciting!

Six acts present brand new short works devised and developed in just one week with mentorship from hip hop theatre aficionados such as Jonzi D and Jane Sekonya and Mo’Sean.

With artists: Adhish Arul | Andreia Cristina | April Milliner | Jayde Edwards | Marie Kaae Schmidt | Shiantaye Northover-Neita

With DJ Pogo on the decks keeping the crowd entertained!

This unique event, which takes place at the end of a week of intense research and development, presents six new works to the audience who are then invited to critique, feedback and ask questions to the artists involved. Open Art Surgery is not about presenting finished work. The focus is to develop theatre skills within hip hop artists and to experiment with new ideas that could be developed further in the future.

Breaking down of the fourth wall to allow the audience to engage with the artists, Open Art Surgery is an unmissable event in the Breakin’ Convention calendar.

Hosted by Jonzi D
