Sports Day

Performance, 2022

​​'Sports Day' invites participants, in particular young people and students, to break weekend routines and embrace a cold morning of outdoor team sports. Seemingly simple, the piece was a brief time away from difficult realities and an experiment into the importance of joy and play in adult life.

Bringing to the surface honest conversations around struggling mental health, substance use and loneliness, the work gives participants an opportunity to practice support and encouragement, leaving with a resounding warmth and a reminder of the effects of kindness and community.
