Shoreditch Town Hall announces sensational spring season of immersive, inclusive and uplifting events.
Shoreditch Town Hall will present a stand-out spring season of bold new work and returning favourites, continuing the venue’s commitment to championing unconventional work, community, and facilitating important conversations in the arts. Amongst the line-up, there will be a new residency from technology pioneers DARKFIELD as well as the Scotsman’s Fringe First Award winning A Little Inquest Into What We Are All Doing Here. The season also includes a variety of fantastic panel discussions and networking opportunities for artists and the arts industry, creative workshops and participatory events for locals, and performances celebrating the queer community.
Headlining the season will be This Egg’s A Little Inquest Into What We Are All Doing Here (11th -15th March), a powerful production challenging the complexities of censorship and freedom of expression. This thought-provoking and gripping production examines the delicate balance between artistic freedom and societal limitations.
Pioneering producers of immersive experiences DARKFIELD (1st – 12th April) will be taking over Shoreditch Town Hall’s coveted basement space, The Ditch for a two-week run of innovative experiences at the forefront of technology and theatre. Offering their first live experiences outside of a shipping container, DARKFIELD’s signature sensory effects and 360-degree binaural sound situates each participant at the centre of intense, evolving narratives.
After the success of 2024’s Queer Noise X Summer in The Ditch, The Queer Noise Collective (13th March) is back with phenomenal new work from queer poets, musicians, performers and artists, with new material from clown Paula Lenoir, poet Ray and musician Tall Child.
The spring season will also continue the charity’s commitment to supporting artistic development. Devoted and Disgruntled (12th -14th April), Improbable’s nationwide conversation about theatre and the performing arts. Shoreditch Town Hall will also host STAMP (Supporting Theatre Artists and Makers of Performance) Connects (21st May), breaking down barriers between independent artists and the organisations who exist to support them. Made In Shoreditch: Artist Workspace will also be continuing by popular demand.
The women-led venue will be celebrating International Women's Day with events hosted by their talented team including Introduction to Bollywood Dance (8th March) and the Shoreditch Town Hall History Tour (8th March), featuring the stories of Sylvia Pankhurst, women’s rights advocate Helen Taylor, Shoreditch's first woman mayor Henrietta Girling OBE and more.
Throughout the season, the Town Hall Tea Dances will continue every month (7th April/6th May/16th June), in the magnificent surrounding of the Assembly Hall. A Beginners’ Dance Class, led by former world champion ballroom and Latin dancer Raymond Root, will take place from 12pm-1pm before every class.
Building works on the venue’s new ramp will also be completed at the end of March, to facilitate easy entrance to the building for those with access needs or those using a pushchair.
