Signal To Noise
Signal To Noise
Thu 10 Oct & Fri 11 Oct 2024
Southbank Centre
Signal to Noise is an upbeat spectacle that gradually unravels. It features fragmented AI-generated speech—ranging from random monologues to weather reports—all lip-synced by six performers.
The show blends human-like voices with off-topic conversations, questioning what’s real and what’s artificial. Alongside this, Etchells’ eclectic score combines various sounds, from xylophones to guitars, creating a strange yet captivating atmosphere. Celebrating Forced Entertainment’s 40th anniversary, the performance invites the audience to reflect on the oddities of human interaction.

This powerful piece by South African choreographer Mamela Nyamza, is an evocative dance work performed at the Barbican. Featuring ten dancers, an opera singer, and an African traditional instrumentalist, the piece fuses Western classical music with African vocals, while challenging gender norms and societal expectations.
Nyamza draws from her personal experiences as a mother and lesbian artist, using bold choreography and striking costumes to explore themes of identity, transformation, and self-liberation.
