Get 25% off three superb Southbank Centre shows

From alternative dance history to AI.

October really is the sweet spot when it comes to filling up your diary with culturally-enriching fun: al fresco summer evenings are a distant memory, party season’s still a while off, and a ton of tempting autumn/winter event programmes have been unveiled.

We’re especially psyched for what the Southbank Centre has lined up. A thrillingly innovative array of international performers take to the stage this autumn/winter, and our readers can discover them for less.

Book any of the following three shows using the code LONDONIST at checkout and you’ll save a whopping 25%!

An alternative dance history

First up? Diana Niepce: The Other Side of Dance. On 16 and 17 October, dancer, choreographer and acrobat Niepce challenges conventional aesthetics of the body and movement in a piece she describes as a “survey of the invisible in dance history”.

Part of Dance Umbrella Festival 2024, this alternative dance history draws inspiration from disabled artists, including Bill Shannon, Claire Cunningham and David Toole.

Uniquely antipodean stylings

Eight dancers from diverse artistic backgrounds — including krump, house, and freestyle hip hop — showcase choreographic precision and impressive psychical endurance in Chunky Move: 4/4. The dance company is based in Melbourne, and 4/4 is described as a “uniquely Australian” performance, with Chunky Move’s Artistic Director Antony Hamilton combining striking craftsmanship with a minimal background.

See it 8-9 November at the Southbank Centre — remember to use the code LONDONIST to redeem your discount!

Out-of-this-world theatre

In a distant future, onboard a spaceship, a experiment is being conducted…

This is Lukasz Twarkowski: The Employees — an unsettling play that explores the relationship between humans and robots.

See the UK debut of this STUDIO teatrgaleria production (which is performed in Polish, with English subtitles) at the Southbank Centre, 16-19 January 2025. A great winter blues buster — a reminder that, no matter how painful going back to work post-Christmas is, at least you’re not stuck in outer space under the surveillance of a mysterious organisation, or forced to collaborate with uncanny humanoid colleagues. Not yet, anyway…
