Let’s Go Up Here

​Presented by Arts House for the Festival of Live Art 2018

Part painting class, part intimate performance.

Let's Go Up Here is an interactive, cross-art form performance work that explores and deploys shifting power dynamics and degrees of audience agency. Part-participatory painting class, part-performance spectacle, the audience are carefully shepherded through a mysterious unfolding landscape.

Come and enjoy a fun and accessible painting workshop with artistes Alice Dixon, Caroline Meaden and William McBride. A peaceful and fulfilling evening with the live arts, Let's Go Up Here provides each workshop participant with a chance to purge their thoughts of the life they knew before, and manifest a new landscape for their remaining days.

Our technique will have you painting beautiful landscapes in just three hours!

Featuring enchanting dance interludes and a sumptuous musical composition, this is live art with alive parts.
