LIVE PERFORMANCE AT BOLD TENDENCIES

The Bold Tendencies Live Programme began in 2011 with Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring, one of the first and finest examples of modernism in music. It has run every year since including the first ever BBC Prom to be held outside the Royal Albert Hall in 2016 and 43 live events held during the pandemic. 

The Live Programme takes place in the covered spaces of the former car park building, deliberately preserving 42,000 sq ft of raw concrete floors and ceilings with panoramic London views. Bold Tendencies facilitates new work and performance opportunities for world-class artists in Peckham, as well as identifying and supporting new generations of talent and creating performance opportunities for children and young people.

The ambition and reach of the live programme has gained momentum in the last three years and it was awarded the prestigious Royal Philharmonic Society “Gamechanger” Award for its transformative contributions to the landscape of live performance in the UK and internationally.

 

 

The programme aims to challenge and expand established boundaries between audience and artist, stage and seat, and provide access for everyone through innovative programmes and affordable ticket prices. It attracts interest from and creates empowering experiences for local residents, children and young people by offering Public Rehearsals, “Backstage Pass” and ‘Ask the Artist’ sessions as well as a Community Ticketing scheme.

Bold Tendencies has a committed history of supporting fledgling performing arts organisations – The Multi-Story Orchestra (since 2011), Loud Crowd Opera (since 2018) – as well as working with international practitioners and companies at a pivotal moment, and with the most adventurous artists of the younger generation, bringing to audiences radical practice and sought-after disciplines at a world-class level.
