Huddle through the madness
— Welcome to Jang Huddle our moving collective—
Haere mai - 안녕하세요
Artistic director Cindy Yunha Jang-Barlow created Jang Huddle in 2017 for people of colour, migrant stories, and anyone who don't feel like they fit into a "tick-box".
We aim to tell stories through Contemporary Dance, Physical Theatre and creating multi-disciplinary experiences.
She's successfully created spaces where diverse voices are heard, and underrepresented stories are told, she always ties her Korean heritage within her works.
Cindy has a particular focus on accessibility, she aims to create community spaces where all people can safely explore dance and movement and have the opportunity to perform.
"What I am great at and love doing is improvisation, and making up my own quirky movements and teaching this to people who have never come from a professional background before. I love seeing people who have never learnt in a studio create their own movements, style and personality to it." - Cindy Jang-Barlow Storyo Interview

In this battle that Jang Huddle presents between power and revolt it seems we are all searching for resolution - for egg shells to be gently repaired. Underlining this exploration of struggle is a tender call for reunion.
A compelling and unique first offering from Jang Huddle, Iron Eyes is a vantage point that provides stirring and personal insight into the Korean situation.
Highly recommended.
