Dear friends and colleagues,it is very exciting to announce that this coming Saturday, on October 26th, the MA/MFA: Choreographing Live Art of the University of Lincoln presents a mini festival of Dead/Live Art at the Frequency Festival. alien
 
This mini festival, APOCALYPSE, THE DEATH OF PERFORMANCE is a semi live, semi dead, Zombie creature that will penetrate your imagination and haunt your minds with fears, hopes and doubts about the future of this performance. In the year 2014, this performance will die. Obsolescence will empower a new mythology for the old forgotten event, completing the circle from death of performance to its guarantee. The performers function as mediums and clairvoyants presenting their apocalyptic visions from their residency in France.
