Sounds Like Chaos: Concrete & Confetti
The diverse young collaborators from the south-east London radical art collective are back to curate another of our Riverside Sessions.
Sounds Like Chaos creates work that responds to our time, making urgent, accessible cultural interventions that are energetic, raw and fun.
With a practice spanning theatre, sound, film, fashion, music, zine making and youth-led research, the only thing predictable is they’ll make a mess on stage, leaving behind a trail of chaos.
Full programme to be announced.
The Southbank Centre’s Riverside Sessions are part of our 75th birthday celebrations and have been curated entirely by young people. Come along, whatever your age, to celebrate youth as a mindset – not a number.
