Audiences move through the gallery as monologue, dance and dialogue unfold among the artworks.Rather than illustrating the art, the performances respond to it — turning the exhibition into a living conversation between artists, performers and audience.Featured ArtistsAhmad Turki, Hani Alqam, Leen Jamil, Tamara El Ali, Arda Aslanian, Mohammad Tamimi, Mattar Odeh, Karma Bint Abbas, Aya Adel, Hamza Jaber, Abdallah Abu Jaber, Wedad Al Nasser and Waaed Qwayder, Tony Mhanna, Juman Nimri, Zaina Al Said, Rama Al Farekh, Sondos Adas, Haya Halaw, and Jude Samman.Performance: Hold The LightA theatrical installation unfolding across three acts:Act I – MonologueAn artist at his own exhibition confronts the uneasy distance between the studio—where art is born—and the gallery—where it is displayed.Act II – DanceA physical exploration of presence, absence and emotional memory.Act III – DialogueA conversation between a British arts journalist and a Jordanian painter that moves between art, identity and representation.Curator Quote“Vibology is about the emotional energy that moves between artwork and audience. We wanted to create a space where visual art isn’t static, but alive — where conversation, movement and encounter are part of the experience.”— Dina Dabbas Rifai - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/hold-the-light-theatre-inspired-by-the-art-of-the-lavant-region/100001984909217903 - **Event Categories**: Art, Exhibitions, Theatre, Entertainment, fine-arts, performances - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: 17 - Excelsior Studios - **lat**: 51.5260404 - **long**: -0.2634653 - **full address**: 17 - Excelsior Studios, Studio 17, Excelsior studios, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: HOLD THE LIGHT - Theatre inspired by the art of the Lavant region - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/2448e25cce21367de39873a2a7b8f0c318e41cae22cd97ba7dc65663507d604d-rimg-w772-h478-dc4c424e-gmir.jpg?v=1774136231 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is HOLD THE LIGHT - Theatre inspired by the art of the Lavant region being held? - **A:** HOLD THE LIGHT - Theatre inspired by the art of the Lavant region takes place on Mon, 11 May, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Fri, 15 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm at 17 - Excelsior Studios, Studio 17, Excelsior studios, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing HOLD THE LIGHT - Theatre inspired by the art of the Lavant region? - **A:** HOLD THE LIGHT - Theatre inspired by the art of the Lavant region is organized by XYZ - Communities. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
