The event begins with a parade outdoors through a public space lasting approximately 30 minutes.
The parade will start on the top of Town Hall Road, which is a private road on the side of Battersea Arts Centre.
Following the parade, the performance will take place in person in our Council Chamber.
An invitation to build the future instead of simply waiting for it… Soliloquio is a festive procession followed by a powerful performance exorcizing centuries of injustice and shining a light on Indigenous cultures.
Inspired by childhood memories and the 58 letters he wrote to his mother during lockdown, artist Tiziano Cruz deploys poetics and poignant imagery to spotlight the defolklorised cultures of the Indigenous communities of northern Argentina, where Cruz was born and raised.
Using the power of theatre and the precision of language, Soliloquio is a scathing critique of those in positions of authority who perpetuate discrimination, exclusion, and injustice.
