Playing Cards with my Grandmother (Thursday)
British artist Alice Instone has created an uplifting and intriguing new project called Playing Cards with my Grandmother to celebrate HeForShe London Arts Week.
Alice is inviting passers by and visitors into her magical Art Caravan at prestigious and prominent London locations, from Tate Modern Bankside to Canary Wharf. Visitors will be welcomed into a jewel-like enchanted world to participate in a game of cards, as a way of bringing together strangers: men, women, young, old and of all backgrounds - and reminding ourselves that what we share is more powerful than what divides us. The caravan offers an intimate and enticing space that should tempt in people who might not go to galleries. They can escape the fray of their busy day for a few minutes and record their Grandmothers’ names in The Grandmothers Book if they wish.

Foreign Body; A play for the #METOO Movement
Foreign Body is the beautifully crafted debut solo show by Imogen Butler-Cole about hope, healing and forgiveness after sexual assault. Uniquely told from the perspective of the survivor and perpetrator of the same assault and including the testimonies of 8 other survivors, Foreign Body is a brave, liberating and life-affirming story. It uses a charged combination of verbatim, physical theatre and a stunning original soundtrack.
The play aims to de-stigmatise dialogue around sexual violence and offers opportunities for audience members to explore the play’s themes through post-show panel discussions alongside sector specialists.
Foreign Body premiered at Southbank Centre WOW Festival in March 2017 and then toured the UK and to Dhaka, Bangladesh. The show had a sell-out run at Soho Theatre in August 2017.
