Smoke Yourself Slim

About Me

A happening is a performance, event or situation meant to be considered as art. Happenings take place anywhere, are often multi-disciplinary, often lack a narrative and frequently seek to involve the audience in some way. Key elements of happenings are planned, but artists sometimes retain room for improvisation.In the later sixties, perhaps due to the depiction in films of hippie culture, the term was used much less specifically to mean any gathering of interest, from a pool hall meetup or a jamming of a few young people to a beer blast or fancy formal party.********************************************** Smoke your self slim are preparing a party "the Party is dead...(long live the party)" for 7th March at Juno in Shoreditch high street. Everyone who is either interested in art or partying (perhaps both!?) wants to be there!!*************************************************Smok e Yourself Slim is a London based theatre company, formed in January 2007 and is under direction of Naia Headland-Vanni. The company comprises of a group of friends who recently graduated from Rose Bruford College and London Metropolitan University. They joined together in order to incorporate their artistic skills and interests into performance. Their shared interests and influences include dance theatre, performance art and anti-theatre. Smoke Yourself Slim look, not only at sociological factors, but also at the personal, in order to create work. They immerse themselves 100% into their research material, deconstruct it and adapt it to performance. ************************************************************ ******************************Cigarettes and Excuses By Smoke yourself Slim at the Lion and Unicorn theatreI edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 *****************************************Theatre without Theatre:
