BirdGang Ltd, the award-winning UK-based creative company specialising in hip-hop dance theatre, proudly presents HATCHWORK 25 – an evening showcasing innovative new work from emerging movement architects. The performance, which represents the culmination of an intensive 360 degree two-week residency for eight artists, takes place at Stanley Arts on Saturday 1st February 2025.
Supported by Stanley Arts, Idlewild Trust and Arts Council England, HATCHWORK 25 continues BirdGang Ltd’s mission of championing the next generation of choreographers by offering eight selected artists a platform to explore and share experimental new work with the public for the very first time.
During the residency, participants engage in workshops and receive mentorship from BirdGang Ltd’s industry-leading Movement Architects and Directors.
With guidance from specialists in sound, lighting, and set design, as well as business development coaching, the artists delve deep into the creative process, honing their craft and gaining tools to shape the future and legacy of their work.
The HATCHWORK Programme is more than just a residency; it’s a unique opportunity for artists to immerse themselves in the creative process, experimenting with diverse methods and pushing the boundaries of dance with an introduction to film and immersive technologies. BirdGang Ltd’s goal is to provide these artists with not only a platform but also the mentorship and resources they need to envision and expand their artistic journeys.
The HATCHWORK programme reflects BirdGang Ltd’s commitment to fostering innovation in hip-hop theatre and multidisciplinary art forms, giving participants access to extensive mentorship and the space to find their artistic voice. Since its inception, HATCHWORK has become a unique and vital launchpad for artists at the beginning of their choreographic journey, empowering them to develop groundbreaking work that contributes to the ever-evolving landscape of hip hop theatre and the performing arts.
