Dancer

Synopsis:
Ian and Gary both love to dance in public. Neither are trained dancers. Ian and Gary are two artists asking questions about visibility, opportunity and experiences. They share a few of their dances to songs by some of their favourite artists including Kylie Minogue, Lady Gaga and Nick Cave.

Notes:
A performance art work created by Ian Johnston, Gary Gardiner and the late Adrian Howells, Dancer is a gentle provocation on what it is to be a 'dancer'.

I'd Rather Humble Than Hero

Synopsis:
Recognise me. I break records, push boundaries, test limits. I am special. I save kittens from trees and people from burning buildings. I throw myself off cliffs and I run through bullets.I am the mafia, the school teacher, the bodyguard. I am the student you never noticed. You want to pin me up, download me and switch me on. You cant help it. I am desirable to you. I have great teeth. I run, I jump and I stand still for you. I let you look at me  my hair, my eyes. You wonder when your chance will come.

Thatcher's Children

Synopsis:
You are hereby invited to the House of Commons to celebrate the life and times of the right honourable Baroness Thatcher. What a woman, what a leader and what a role model for our young men! Thatcher's Children is a high energy physical performance exploring the notion of society and questioning the ability of someone to lead one, if it indeed does not exist. What is Thatcher's legacy? and what, as her children, have we inherited?
