Holly Blakey is among the foremost choreographers of her generation and one of the few female choreographers in the UK creating large-scale work. Her practice attends to the honest entanglements of embodied vulnerability, grief, and joy, always rooted in an intersectional feminist frame. As a director and choreographer, she has collaborated with artists including Rosalía, Harry Styles, and Florence + The Machine, and with fashion houses such as Vivienne Westwood, Burberry and Dior, interweaving live and commercial contexts, much of her practice often plays on the relationship between these distinct but not wholly separable worlds.

Blakey has been creating ensemble works since 2015, when she presented Some Greater Class with Hales Gallery and Southbank Centre. Lo, a new large scale work is a dark, embodied fairy tale exploring how failure, forgetting, and imagination can become sites of creative power. It represents a significant evolution in the scale and ambition of Blakey’s live performance work and is in development for 2026/27.
