Drawing with Light

Join us for an unforgettable evening as the heart of Camden comes alive with dance, light and sound in a spectacular free performance celebrating the trial pedestrianisation of Camden High Street.

Dancers and young performers wearing lighting will illuminate Camden Town, weaving through the streets in a glowing procession that reflects the borough’s rebellious spirit, creative energy and diverse community.

The performance, directed by leading choreographer David Blake, and internationally acclaimed dancers Coralie Calfond, Oraine Frater, Stanley Duventru-Huret, and Harley Charles, will be celebrating Camden High Street’s pedestrianisation scheme and the canalside architecture as day turns to dusk.

Part of Camden’s Black History Season, Drawing with Light shines a light on the inclusion, diversity creativity that have shaped the borough’s identity.
