Drawing from circus, stand-up and live art, Contra is an autobiographical solo cabaret of contradictions. Using a rope and a roll of cling film, Laura Murphy sets her experiences of her own body amidst an anecdotal tapestry of body hair observations on public transport and dinner table discussions about lesbian sex. Dark, witty and uncompromising, Contra interrogates personal, social and historical occupations with the female body, and explores where such bodies are positioned and how we’re meant to look at them. Expect nudity and explicit references to female sexuality and mythical reptiles.

Gandini Juggling teams up with breakout stars Chris Patfield and Jose Triguero for Gibbon, a surreal and charming feast of juggling choreography with a wicked sense of humour and a hint of the surreal. Taking inspiration from the worlds of dance and physical theatre, Gibbon perfectly combines technical skill and performance chemistry. Achieving success through failure, two world-leading jugglers cut between the creation and execution of hypnotic patterns and devastatingly slick movement sequences.

The fallibility of longitudinal memory and the memory of fleeting everyday experiences make up the two different parts of this exhibition. What do we keep of our lives, is this a reminder to ourselves and how much is it how we want others to remember us? The first is subject to self-selection and the second to the fallibility of others’ interpretation. Both play on the material in this first part of this exhibition.
Helen de Mouilpied was born in 1914 and died in 1987. Thirty years later the material she kept about herself is presented by the artist through his own memories. The viewer’s interpretation will confer significance to these memories. Why was this material kept and other items discarded? What has determined the selection from the material for this exhibition? How does this material trigger our own ways of remembering?
The first part of this exhibition is made up of diaries, photos, letters and other physical memories. Displayed chronologically it makes up the substance of one remembered life.
The second part of the exhibition is the culmination of a photographic project in Hackney. Fleeting interactions are committed to photographic memory. The same photograph was taken every day for a year, but not at the same time of day. The photographer (the artist) was not in Hackney every day; it took nearly eighteen months to accrue 365 photos. These are displayed in the form of a slide show: Hackney Crossing 365. The momentary memory of that instant has been captured through photographs, drawings, painting and lithographs.
The passing of time, observing everyday street scenes and surveillance have been recurrent themes in Adam Forman’s work; travel scenes in Imminent Public Spaces (2006) and the CCTV Series (2010). Being watched, watching and observing are ever present in these images, as is the act of clandestine photography on the closely observed crossing.
Much of the work in the exhibition is for sale. Open Tues-Fri 1-5, Sat 11-4, Sun 11-5; closed Mon. Exhibition continues until 11 April.

Britain’s leading mask theatre company Vamos returns to Jacksons Lane with its powerful, compassionate production about the life of a soldier after returning from combat. Ryan is in Afghanistan to see the world, learn a trade, get a life. Training is complete, combat is a buzz: he’s part of a team. But on one particular tour of duty Ryan sees things he can’t talk about – and when he returns home, the trouble really begins. Created from two years of research with former and serving soldiers, families and health professionals, A Brave Face explores post-traumatic stress in the military, an unseen and often unrecognised injury of war told through Vamos’s trademark wordless, full-mask style.
