PLAYING UP Glasgow Launch: Live Art for Kids and Adults

Make clothes out of food, lie on top of cars, dance with animals, remote control your parents! 

PLAYING UP is an artwork by Sibylle Peters, exploring the potential of Live Art to bridge generations. Drawing on key Live Art themes and seminal works, PLAYING UP takes the form of a game played by adults and kids together.

View the PLAYING UP dedicated website.

LADA's Coordinator Katy Baird will be hosting a PLAYING UP public play-in at the BUZZCUT Festival in Glasgow as part of Close Shave, a programme of events and performances specifically for young audiences. More info
