Created in an age of emerging electronic connectivity, Protein’s critically acclaimed LOL (lots of love) puts its characters on a quest for friendship and romance. Against a wall of screen-gazing isolated individuals recruited as part of the making process across the country, six cyber souls stylishly nail the language of life online as they tackle the baffling etiquette of digital discourse. Talking and dancing at speed, they make hilarious straight-to-the audience confessions and dance the physical equivalent of tagging and tweeting. Video animation by Rachel Davies, lighting design by Jackie Shemesh and original music by Andy Pink conjure a razor-sharp social commentary and an affecting rendering of human need.
“Pared down until it sings with melancholy tension…”
The Observer
“Human communication on virtual speed, exhilarating and funny. [Luca’s] best creation to date”
★★★★ The Guardian
Nominated for Outstanding Achievement in Dance at the Theatre Awards UK 2011, LOL (lots of love) brought Protein to win Best Independent Dance Company at the National Dance Awards 2011, where it was also nominated for Best Modern Choreography and Outstanding Female Performance (Sally Marie).

Rafael Bonachela, artistic director of Sydney Dance Company, and the composer Ezio Bosso, together devised the work and music for The Land of Yes and the Land of No as a collaboration with HiBROW. Rafael took the bold move of rehearsing and performing the piece on the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral over three consecutive weekday lunchtimes. The work was received with great enthusiasm, and audiences grew each day as word spread of this extraordinary event. Mobile technology allowed the HiBROW team to immerse themselves in the project, allowing the viewer into the heart of it in a way seldom seen on screen before.

Derek Jarman creates a visual evocation of Benjamin Britten’s choral masterpiece, The War Requiem, which blends the Latin Mass of the Dead with the poignant poetry of Wilfred Owen. Dramatised scenes featuring spellbinding performances from an extraordinary cast are interwoven with cinematic, poetic images and harrowing archive footage, which all serve to recreate the horrors of 20th century wars – the loss of innocence, the unbearable suffering, the nightmares, the tragic waste of life. Critically acclaimed on its release, Derek Jarman’s War Requiem is perhaps the visionary director’s greatest film. As a testament to the futility of war it is a unique, poignant and haunting experience.

When HiBROW approached Dominic Hill, artistic director of the Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh, to serve as its first curator of theatre he explained that he had wanted to preserve the theatre's 50 year old international reputation as the champion of fresh contemporary playwriting. To demonstrate that, he commissioned five leading British writers to write a half hour play which would unapologetically rely on text and be performed in what is now regarded as an established 'hybrid' platform for new plays: the 'staged reading'.
All is Vanity is one such play, directed by the wonderful David Eldridge.
Featuring: Dominic Hill (director), David Eldridge (writer), Jane Bertish (Ursula), Meg Fraser (Charlotte) and others...
