SUMMARY:EFG London Jazz Festival - SUNDAY: Finding Ways + more tba
DESCRIPTION:ONE OFF SUNDAY SPECIAL FOR EFG LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL Sunday 23 November 8 pm \n\n\nThe CockpitSeb Rochford’s Finding Ways\nMore artists TBA \n\nSeb Rochford’s Finding Ways @sebrochford\nIn 2003\, drummer Sebastian Rochford formed Polar Bear – a contemporary jazz group that\, over the next decade\, helped define a new era in British music. Their sound was bold\, open-hearted\, and influential\, earning two Mercury Prize nominations and widespread acclaim. Since then\, Seb’s distinctive voice has been heard across a broad spectrum of music\, collaborating with artists including Patti Smith\, Damon Albarn\, Grace Jones and Brian Eno. This year\, he returns as a bandleader with Finding Ways\, layering up to three guitars at a time around his drums and bass\, the album featuring ten different guitarists. He’s joined by a remarkable set of collaborators and guests\, including Tara Cunningham\, David Preston\, Simon Tong\, Leo Abrahams\, Matt Hurley\, Adrian Utley\, John Parish\, Seye Adelekan\, Anders Christensen and Ruth Goller – each adding something unmistakably their own\, and it’s this space they’re given to be themselves that defines the sound. This is honest music-making. Nothing is forced. Nothing boxed in. Finding Ways. That’s what Seb is doing—musically\, emotionally\, personally. \n\n‘The Finding Ways music is about Finding Ways to keep positive and navigate the world around us’.\n\n\n\nContemporary and Traditional Jazz Bands are available for Hire via Music for London.

SUMMARY:Woo Woolf
DESCRIPTION:This is not a Virginia Woolf bio-play.  Devised by an all migrant ensemble\, Woo Woolf is a playful protest that reaches across time\, culture\, and language to meet Virginia Woolf in mischief and metaphor. Tracing gendered histories\, fleeting memories\, and migrant feelings through bodies\, screens\, and shifting voices\, the piece invites new ways of seeing\, feeling\, and remembering across language and tradition. \nCreated by Ensemble Not Found (ENF)\, a collective of first-generation ESEA artists\, Woo Woolf draws inspiration from Woolf’s diaries and gender philosophy to explore fluid identity through movement\, multilingual text\, and audiovisual performance. Blending everyday conversation with surreal imagery and fragmented theatrical forms\, the work gently unsettles cultural boundaries and fixed narratives. Developed since 2023\, Woo Woolf has been performed at Theatre Deli and Camden People’s Theatre. \n‘This is not your average storytelling. It can be puzzling. And yet\, I can’t stop looking’ – The Play’s The Thing UK\n‘The performance was truly beautiful and sincere. Powerful and soft\, hitting you in the right spot while leaving a smile on your face.” – Audience response

SUMMARY:Flitsmeister
DESCRIPTION:Hello there…are you sitting comfortably? \nEven with the rise of the right wing throughout Europe? \nCome see Flitsmeister\, because there’s no time like the present to ask these questions! \nFlitsmeister\, is a 14+ show for people who are safe in their own bubble. \nIt’s an explosive techno-opera piece questioning the radicalisation of politics\, infused with Gabber (traditional dance from The Netherlands). \nThis experimental piece explores the lives of a group of young people who face the tension between their youthful innocence and the looming shadow of societal and personal reckoning\, and the consequences of a tragic event.\nA series of intimate\, painful exchanges between characters\, along with chaotic moments of laughter and dance\, slowly reveal the tragic truth: one of them unintentionally caused the tragic event. \nAnd for the first time\, you will be able to see this piece at its full length!

SUMMARY:CODACHROME: a live DJ set about the time I fell in love with a [trigger warning]
DESCRIPTION:CODACHROME is a party play told by two DJs and a deck. \nRemy\, an adult\, discovers their intimate partner is a [trigger warning]\, and must now face the challenge of investigating how trauma might breed such behaviours and what it means to tend to one another’s wounds. \nThey dissect these questions whilst never skipping a beat\, because there’s nowhere more romantic to meet yourself than on the dance floor. \nThis play is a rave\, and this rave “defies conventions” and “packs a punch” – Everything Theatre

SUMMARY:The Uncontainable Nausea of Alec Baldwin
DESCRIPTION:Alec Baldwin is not a superstar. He is not really famous. He wasn’t born in 1958 and does not have eight children. Alec Baldwin has never had sex with Kim Basinger and never ever shot and killed a woman by mistake.\n\nI am Alec Baldwin.But not THE Alec Baldwin. \nThe Uncontainable Nausea of Alec Baldwin is a highly physical and multidisciplinary piece that navigates the psychological and physical breakdown of Alec Baldwin as he grapples with a pervasive sense of Nausea towards himself and the desensitised digital society he is part of.\n\nFollowing a significant life-altering event that leaves Alec largely isolated\, he becomes obsessively engaged with an AI bot\, finding solace in its unfiltered factual directness. This connection pushes Alec to question humanity’s paradoxical relationship with violence\, war and its moral double standards. Haunted by the consequences of his actions\, Alec embarks on an absurd and visceral quest to confront personal guilt and societal indifference\, while attempting to reconcile his existence with the harsh realities faced by our generation.Will Alec Baldwin break free from his Nausea?

SUMMARY:Mendaki (To Climb)
DESCRIPTION:MENDAKI (formerly Siapa Yang Bawa Melayu Aku Pergi?) is Faizal Abdullah’s unflinching solo performance reclaiming his Muslim-Malay-Singaporean identity from colonial myths\, state narratives and disappearing heritage. Part performance-lecture\, part cultural love letter\, it slices through history\, identity and language with wit\, rage and unexpected tenderness. \nOver the course of an hour\, Faizal shifts between himself and his alter-egos\, inviting you into a world where history is carefully curated\, identity is state-regulated\, and being Muslim-Malay in Singapore can sometimes feel like quiet rebellion. From colonial treaties to National Service\, from void deck weddings to National Day parades\,personal history collides with political inheritance\, and lost narratives are brought to life. \nYou’ll learn\, laugh\, and question what you know about the little red dot that is Singapore. MENDAKI is an urgent act of memory and resistance; a bold stand for language\, belonging and the refusal to disappear. \n2023 Eclipse Award winner.

SUMMARY:XQUENDA
DESCRIPTION:Xquenda is the story of a young indigenous woman from rural Oaxaca\, and her search for justice after the disappearance and murder of her best friend. No one seems to care due to their social and economic conditions. \nHer protest is through her Poems.\nHer weapon is her Words. \nThrough letters written while she’s protesting\, we get to know her life\, her traditions and culture\, the magical realism that is the heart of her town\, and her love and connection with her ancestors and with the nature of the world that surrounds her\, which\, although beautiful\, is not necessarily fair for women. \nXquenda is a word in ancient Zapotec which means “Soul”\, referring to the true self of a person\, and what remains on earth after death. \nAccompanied by live music and recorded tracks with traditional Mexican rhythms\, the piece is performed in English\, Spanish\, and Zapotec languages. \nBased on a true story.

My mind never stops\, it keeps working. My brain is always awake. I tell myself\, ‘Shut up\, girl.’ I don’t know\, if I’m a woman\, my mind must be a woman too\, that’s why I say it like that. A woman with eyes wide open\, sharp as a razor.’’

SUMMARY:When the Clarion Came to Call
DESCRIPTION:In this audacious solo performance by artist and somatic traumatologist Stefan Jovanović Kaasa\, myth meets movement in a ritual that resists categorisation and demands to be felt before understood. The clarion\, a winged healer\, emerges from the shadows bearing messages of warning and transformation. \nCombining dance\, physical theatre\, spoken word\, storytelling and song\, When the Clarion Came to Call unfolds in the round across nine archetypal chapters. It channels the cyclical nature of trauma and healing\, tracing the fractured lines between accountability and the possibility of renewal. At its centre is the clarion—a mystical bird-being and symbol of queer resilience—inviting audiences into a shared space of reckoning\, intimacy and the phantasmagorical. \nAlthough fully scripted\, this work is dynamically shaped by the presence of each audience and the collective energy of gathering. Without requiring active participation\, you are invited to engage with your total attention—bringing your full self\, just as you are. The piece blurs the line between theatre and ritual\, myth and memory\, performer and witness. The clarion does not explain. It calls. \nThis Cockpit UK premiere marks the debut of Strange Fictions\, Jovanović Kaasa’s new performance company\, previously known as Studio Stefan Jovanović. Under that name\, his past works include Constellations (Sadler’s Wells\, Lilian Baylis Studio\, 2019) and Drumming in the Hall of the Mountain (Derby Festé\, 2022).

SUMMARY:Parricelli\, Mullov-Abbado\, Clarvis Trio
DESCRIPTION:Doors open 7pm\, music from 8pm. \nJohn Parricelli (born 5 April 1959 in Evesham\, Wychavon\, Worcestershire\, England) is a jazz guitarist who has worked mainly in the United Kingdom. \nParricelli began his career as a guitarist in 1982. He was one of the founding members of the British big band Loose Tubes\, with whom he recorded three albums. He has worked with Annie Whitehead\, Kenny Wheeler\, Norma Winstone\, Lee Konitz\, Paul Motian\, Chris Laurence\, Peter Erskine\, Vince Mendoza\, Julian Argüelles\, Iain Ballamy\, Mark Lockheart\, Andy Sheppard\, Gerard Presencer\, Colin Towns\, and Stacey Kent \nAward-winning\, London-based jazz bass player\, composer and arranger Misha Mullov-Abbado is a musician who combines great imagination with raw talent and a clear vision. A BBC New Generation Artist and with three critically acclaimed albums on Edition Records under his name\, his most recent offering Effra showcases his ‘melodic gift’ (John Fordham\, The Guardian) and ability to masterfully combine beautifully-crafted compositions with free-spirited improvisation. Written over a three-year period the self-produced album\, released in early 2025 on Ubuntu Music\, marks the arrival of an artist who has been on a voyage of self-discovery. \nHis aforementioned collective features some of the most exhilarating and sought-after young musicians in London and was formed during Misha’s final year at Royal Academy of Music over a decade ago. An experienced band-leader and versatile sideman\, Misha regularly performs all over the UK and around the world\, including at top London venues such as Ronnie Scott’s\, the Vortex\, King’s Place and Royal Albert Hall. His vast musical travels have led him to work alongside inspiring musicians such as Alice Zawadzki\, Dave O’Higgins\, Fred Thomas\, Tim Garland\, Viktoria Mullova\, Enzo Zirilli\, Sam Lee\, Rob Luft\, Paul Clarvis\, Stan Sulzmann and Nessi Gomes. In 2024 he was part of a release on ECM Records Za Górami in a trio with Alice Zawadzki and Fred Thomas which was The Guardian’s Jazz album of the month. \nA prolific composer and arranger in his own right\, Misha embraces his jazz\, classical\, pop and folk influences and writes for a variety of jazz groups\, as well as various classical soloists and ensembles. Commissions include work with the Hermes Experiment\, Norfolk & Norwich Festival\, LSSO\, Hill Quartet\, Pelleas Ensemble\, NW Live Arts and BBC Radio 3\, the latter of which commissioned his cello concerto which was premiered at London’s Southbank Centre by Matthew Barley and the BBC Concert Orchestra. \nIt’s only a matter of time before Misha seals his place on the international scene at the forefront of a new generation of European creative. \nIt wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say that accomplished percussionist Paul Clarvis has performed with everyone you know and on everything you love. Clarvis was the late Leonard Bernstein’s preferred London percussionist and helped Rick Smith with the drum arrangement for the London Olympics 2012 show-stopping opening\, as well as having worked with high-profile musicians like Mick Jagger\, Stevie Wonder\, Sir Paul McCartney\, and Elton John. His film slate is just as impressive\, including memorable films like “Star Wars\,” “Harry Potter\,” “The Chronicles of Narnia\,” “Twilight\,” “Skyfall\,” “Tron\,” “Shrek\,” and “The Hobbit.” Beyond his ongoing and in-demand work as a session musician\, Clarvis is also an Honorary Associate of the Royal Academy of Music.
