IMPERMANENCE PRESENTS... Doors from 6.30pm, talk starts at 7pm. Free entry. Lea Anderson (director) will be in conversation with Dr Mary Kate Connolly (writer, editor and curator) about Lea’s 40-year diverse career, making dance and performance works, then, now and in the future. This year there are two fantastic books out about the Cholmondeleys and The Featherstonehaughs dance companies. One has been created and published by the company and the other is by Dr Mary Kate Connolly published by Intellect Books. ‍ There will be drinks, discussions and book signings. Lea Anderson’s The Cholmondeleys and the Featherstonehaughs is a full colour hardback book with photos by Chris Nash, Pau Ros, Eddie Monsoon, Matilda Temperley, Pete Moss and the Douglas Brothers. Edited by Mary Kate Connolly and designed by Pep Sala, it includes drawings, interviews with key collaborators and features costumes designed by Sandy Powell, Emma Fryer, Simon Vincenzi, Joanna Parker, Marie & Maria, and Jess Hooks. The book is available to buy at TACO! and will be available in the online TACO! Shop. Lea Anderson’s choreographic style is known for its distinct aesthetic sensibility which draws from a wealth of contemporary culture, media, film, and art history. For over 40 years she has created dance that is irreverent, dark, and deeply affecting. Employing an expansive and collaborative approach to production, her work incorporates costumes, music, film and staging by working with a range of designers, film-makers, musicians, and artists.
