“To become cognizant or aware. Roused from a tranquil or inactive state. A path or course of a thing passed or preceded. Mourning the body of the dead. Keeping watch. Holding vigil.

WAKE is ]performance s p a c e ['s curatorial project for 2017. A six month long programme of events exploring social consciousness, collectivity and division.
It is a call to action, to wake up. A vigil to remember what has gone before & a gathering to consider how we may move forward. Consisting of three strands:

The Risings: I & II, The Vigils: Black, Earth, Sex, Rites and WAKE Festival.”
