The Mount Without

Stunning converted church venue on St Michael's Hill.

Is The Mount Without Bristol's most beautiful venue? A recently converted church that's been the site of worship for over 900 years, whoever's in charge has left a lot of the drag majesty of the old structure in tact. And so, with a keen eye for visual art and interior design, the Mount Without was born. Principally a wedding / private hire venue, it adds a touch of the sublime to all performances and gigs hosted there.

Live deconstructed dub, baile funk on the decks, b-boy animation screening and, of course, eye-popping contemporary dance (with guitars!) – Impermanence are pulling all the Friday night stops out for the closing of This Body fest: an exploration of hip-hop subculture and urban movement in the stunning gothic surrounds of The Mount Without. THREADS is an evening curated by Magnus & Izaak Brandt. Film, Music, Dance & Club Night combine to create an image of Bristol using the expanded lens of hip hop.

A standout new piece from British-Guyanese choreographer Owen Ridley-DeMonick, premiering as part of Impermanence’s fortnight-long dance-theatre festival, This Body. Caliban’s Dream uses The Tempest’s monstrified anti-hero as a springboard for a reclamation tale that examines dispossessed selfhood and the legacy of colonial violence. Transcendent. A world premiere from Owen Ridley-DeMonick

Karla Shacklock’s autobiographical dance-theatre piece takes a one-woman lactivist leap into the many myths, social stigmas and divisive debates which surround the world of infant feeding. A heartfelt and deeply personal work, Niplash moves with humour, authenticity, compassion… and confetti. A dance theatre solo conceived, laboured and birthed by Karla Shacklock

A performance piece from artist Hetain Patel, Mathroo Basha (Mother Tongue) traverses dance, voice, and personal history to reflect on immigration and the ways traditions shift over time. Patel responds to recorded Gujarati-language interviews with women from his own family, using movement to explore what is passed down between generations after loss. IMPERMANENCE Presents... Acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker Hetain Patel's latest work which uses movement and audio interviews to explore generational change across his Brit-Gujarati family.
