Dirty Laundry is a devised physical theatre show about the vicious power and abuse cycle in the Fast Fashion industry.

Through movement, text and an original sound score we battle with our slippery relationship to clothes and how female garment workers often pay the true price for quick, on-demand fashion.

Join us as we unravel the threads of fast fashion’s dark secrets. We have partnered with Jenerous Clothing brand and Slow Fashion Movement UK to develop this work-in-progress showing at Omnibus Theatre.

In this multidisciplinary piece, the artists explore from his personal experience the effects of having to assimilate and orientate himself as a migrant subject in new societies. After 13 years of leaving his country, Charly works around questions like: What does it mean for our bodies to physically arrive into a new territory, to after keep the journey of becoming the other? How migrants are allowed to occupy the space? Or, how fixed are the migrants’ identities?

In societies obsessed with borders, securitization and migration this piece presents us with an inside perspective of the migratory experience. Codifying the choreographic language of migration and staging it will become a claim for intelligibility and though provocation around one of the most controversial figures of our times, THE MIGRANT.

“Nothing has touched me more than the Georgian songs. But the Georgian songs … They kind of link us back into very ancient performance, song, and ways of being with the voice, and they take us to the future and they do stimulate innovation.” Joan Mills, Centre for Performance Research.

A musical voyage of survival and revival through the living tradition of Georgian folk songs. Hear how the songs healed families in the Caucasus from tragedy, and came to be loved by singers in the UK.

UNESCO proclaimed Georgian polyphony an ‘Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity’. With a unique tuning system, the songs connect us to ancient ancestors. Accompanying all stages of life – from birth to death, the songs are present in moments of love and loss, of work and play. There are songs for worship, travelling and most importantly toasting songs.

Holly Taylor-Zuntz and Susan Thompson are two British creatives who love absorbing the songs and culture of Georgia. They both sing in Maspindzeli, the London Georgian choir, and have created performances exploring Georgian songs in theatres, community spaces and online.

Meetings with singers in Georgia inspired their podcast ‘Voices of the Ancestors’. It follows the journey of the songs and the women who sing them and is available on all streaming platforms.

The theatre piece examines the stories behind the songs and the women who sing them, considering ancestors as a global treasure, wherever our roots lie.
