Live Heart is made up of Danny Smith, Chris Brierley, Catherine Long and Guy Dartnell.

They use music, visual art, theatre, photography and improvisation to create experimental/performance or live art. Key themes they explore include identity, choice and feelings.

They have performed at Tate Modern and the Paradise Gardens Festival.

Their show Frameworks Plus is an improvisation using singing, music, words, movement, painting and projected images. This dynamic, haunting and poetic piece features opera, verbal duets, free movement, the violin, Elvis and laughing.

It was first performed at The Beautiful Octopus Club in 2010 and has since been seen at Bristol Jam the UK’s first festival of improvised performance, where they appeared at the festival for two years running.

They were also winners of the P&B Cultural Showcase which celebrates local creative talent in Deptford.
