INSIDE GIOVANNI’S ROOM

Inside Giovanni’s Room by Phoenix Dance Theatre

James Baldwin’s groundbreaking novel is brought to life by these titans of UK dance theatre

11 — 14 June, Sadler’s Wells East

Published and set in the 1950s, James Baldwin’s Giovanni’s Room tackles themes of love, sexuality, guilt and self-acceptance.

Now, to mark Baldwin’s 100th birthday, choreographer Marcus Jarrell Willis unpacks this thought-provoking novel in a narrative dance piece that looks at how the themes are still so poignant and relevant today.

Founded 40 years ago by three young Black British men who dared to create a platform to share their lived experiences through dance, Phoenix Dance Theatre’s new production continues that mission.
