A solo performance by Nora Amin, that is also a personal testimony of the author, choreographer and director, who traces her own body history between Egypt and Germany. She searches for an artistic language that embodies both trauma and the ecstasy of liberation, and allows for communal dancing as an intimate and decolonial practice beyond the categorizations of white economies.

We congratulate Patricia Ariza on her appointment as Colombia's Minister of Culture.


"Theatre director and playwright Patricia Ariza has been appointed by President-elect Gustavo Petro as the new Minister of Culture. She is a feminist artist who has worked for years with marginalised communities, who has been a militant on the left, who is close to movements of independent artists, and who was one of the pioneers of what in Colombia was called the New Theatre."

"Wherever you are walking"

Helen Chadwick launches her new album, "Wherever you are walking".

Performance Research Journal, Vol. 28, No. 2
