H2DANCE would like to welcome you to our second edition of Fest en Fest—LAB in association with Sadler’s Wells and Dance Umbrella. This year’s —LAB is centred around the convivial as a way to think and experiment with questions of networks, relations, ecosystems, and infrastructures. We have curated a week of studio and dinner conversations inviting artists and curators of dance and performance. READ MORE
