Please join LADA for a launch of Awkwoods on Wednesday 20 November in London.

Daniel will also mark the launch of Awkwoods with a low-fi relaxed rong table at Queen Mary University of London on Thursday 31 October.

Daniel Oliver is dyspraxic and he creates awkward participatory performance worlds. He has done so since 2003. This book documents some of those worlds, as well as bringing together critical and creative responses by Aby Watson, Jo Hauge, Luke Ferris, O. Husch, Chloe Spicer, Hamja Ahsan and Nwando Ebizie. These writings focus on discussing, embracing, and celebrating dyspraxic approaches to performance making, socialising, world building, thinking and writing. It is especially for everyone accept of course for those who choose to identify as ‘everyone’ rather that someone else - but it will be great for anyone who, for example, is invested in dyspraxia, neurodiversity, Live Art, Audience Participation, World-Building, and sentences like this one.

PDF copies of the book are available on request following purchase. Please email joseph@thisisliveart.co.uk to arrange.
