En Route Together

Year of Production

2024

A promenade experience in Woolwich.

Featuring a cast of community performers from across the Royal Borough of Greenwich, En Route Together united artists, musicians & local people in an outdoor experience across Woolwich.

The cinematic outdoor performance emerged from the historic setting of St George’s Garrison Church crossing streets and squares on its way to the Royal Arsenal. Audiences were swept up in 360 vision of a community on the move as dance, storytelling and live music unfolded all around them.

Joining Protein’s dancers and musicians, sustainable street band Pulsar UK, Emma Bond’s choir Sing Together and community dancers from Dancing to the Music of Time (Trinity Laban).

Reviews

"Beautiful, dreamlike trance of colours, heartbeat pounding and electric energy. From tranquil serenity to flowing into a family hub of familiar friends, dancing by the river."
Audience comment
"As it is, En Route Together remains a seasonal opportunity for audiences to unlearn their conditioning in the urban and suburban environments that challenge both nature and human nature."
British Theatre Guide
Thank you for creating and sharing a piece of art that truly matters. Political, inspiring, relevant and enlivening!"
