Dance Umbrella heads to Shoreditch Town Hall this Autumn, presenting a radical performance by artist Elena Antoniou.

Cypriot performer Elena Antoniou's bold and intimate solo show transforms the body into a living stage. With striking physicality and unapologetic presence, Antoniou explores how personal experience can become a shared space — a landscape shaped by desire, exposure and resistance.  

Oscillating between pleasure and pain, LANDSCAPE invites us into a world where self-objectification becomes a radical act. Antoniou hypersexualises her form while holding space for trauma, teasing the edges of performance and provocation. The result is a dance that dares to confront the politics of looking — and being looked at.  

Antoniou has presented her work across Europe, collaborating with renowned institutions including Onassis Stegi and the Marina Abramović Institute. Her practice spans choreography, performance and movement direction, and she continues to push boundaries with internationally acclaimed artist Maria Hassabi. With LANDSCAPE, Antoniou delivers a performance that is both deeply personal and defiantly political — a vital new voice on the contemporary dance stage.  

Please note: This is a standing event. There will be some seats available for anyone less able to stand. The event is wheelchair accessible.
