    Akram Khan | Making Space

    Internationally renowned dancer and choreographer, Akram Khan, joins Roundhouse CEO and Artistic Director Marcus Davey to explore the power of stories to help us understand the world and uncovers a connection artists seem to find with the world. Akram reveals his personal journey with creativity, starting with his training in Kathak dance and finding community in cross-cultural collaboration, which he calls "the essential engine of my work." He shares his unique perspective on what dance is—a physical language built to convey something "primal and universally resonant," cutting directly to the heart of what is often "unsayable" with words alone. Akram shares how he brings courage and honesty to his performances, noting that movement can be "a powerful reflection of trauma, joy, and the beauty of human fragility."Making Space is a six-episode series, featuring intimate conversations with leading artists and thinkers connected to the Roundhouse.

    Poet, novelist, playwright and former Young People's Laureate for London, Cecilia Knapp, joins Roundhouse CEO and Artistic Director Marcus Davey to explore the power of authentic human stories and how not to overthink a poem.

She shares her unique perspective on what poetry is—a language we’ve built to convey something "complex or slippery to convey," cutting directly to the heart of what is often "unsayable" with bog-standard words. Cecilia shares how she brings courage and honesty to her writing, noting that grief can be "mundane and it can be surreal and it can be funny sometimes".

    One of the world's greatest living artists and former winner of the Turner Prize, Sir Antony Gormley, joins Roundhouse CEO and Artistic Director Marcus Davey on Making Space; exploring creativity as a vital social force.
