LIVE COLLISION INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL // SPECIAL EDITION 2016 presents a curated programme of some of the most daring and beautiful work for our time with exceptional live performances and provocations throughout.
From the opening of a world premiere to the festival welcoming home large scale Irish work that has toured across continents in the earlier part of 2016, to our DOUBLE BILLS and OFF-SITE work; each work boldly asking us (the festival audience) to consider our place in the culture, in society, the world and in the grand scheme of things. From seismic questions on race, gender and identity with gentle agitations and rip roaring energy in equal measure.
Once again the festival repositions BITE SIZE SCRATCH performances, where artists articulate and present a germ of an idea and audiences are asked to critically engage with the proposition of the work, to build further works that will grow and develop through 2017 and beyond.
Live Collision’s LIVE ART SALONS and initiatives WHY LIVE ART, WHY NOW and TRANS LIVE ART SALON generate the space for dialogue, exploration and discussion while being indicative of the value the festival holds in live practice and the spaces live performance carves for writing back against the conventional narrative.
Most importantly we welcome both artists and audiences in equal measure to come together around the festival through live performances, dialogues and publications.
IT IS A RARE AND BEAUTIFUL THING!
