LIFT works with internationally renowned artists to collaborate with communities across London to create new work. Here are the projects we are currently working on.
Urban Theatre Projects
LIFT has commissioned a new project from Urban Theatre Projects (UTP), one of Australia’s leading contemporary theatre companies who have achieved an international reputation for producing arresting site-specific work.
Hamid Pourazari
As part of LIFT’s commitment to presenting Middle Eastern work to develop community relations here in London, we have commissioned Iranian theatre director Hamid Pourazari to come to the UK and work with people from London’s Farsi speaking community.
Biggest Learning Opportunity in the World?
Would you like to look inside a special box which stores the memories of an amazing event?
LIFT’s highly skilled team of artists have been working with seven schools across London exploring the possibilities of theatre through the LIFT Living Archive and using the Olympic Games as a catalyst to create their own special event.
LIFT’s project ‘And The Winner Is … London’ forms part of ‘The Biggest Learning Opportunity on Earth’, A New Direction’s Olympic-themed 2010/11 Enquiry Schools programme. This is an innovative London-wide partnership programme exploring the value of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games as a learning opportunity for young Londoners, and is taking place in 150 schools across London.
