An installation, socially distant pop up performance and film project.

Overview
The arts in the UK hasn't necessarily ever been, but definitely isn't in the best of positions right now. Particularly live theatre, and the creation of new theatre.
The Koppel Project have recently had to move 70 artists out of their Soho Studios building in order for it to be torn down to make space for yet another luxury hotel.
We think it is the perfect symbol for CAPITALISM.
Driven by the need to reignite the importance of human connection, togetherness and community following the time of isolation covid-19 has brought with it, we are putting together an installation, socially distanced pop up performance & film project.
With an anarchic edge, DISMANTLE will fill an empty space with a bit of life, offering hope and resilience for a moment (before it is gone again). We think it will be a welcome celebration of a city that is full of art but hasn't always looked after its artists. It might get a bit bleak, a bit desperate and a little bit mournful too.
Location: The Koppel Project, 48 Poland Street, Soho, London
