Clod Ensemble

Who we are

For over two decades, director Suzy Willson and composer Paul Clark have developed a highly original performance language, creating provocative, finely crafted work, ambitious in scale and concept.

CLOD ENSEMBLE works at the intersection of different forms and disciplines – at the point where they meet, transform and challenge each other to become something new.

We work with dancers, actors, musicians, medics, architects and orchestras.

Our work is presented in London, across the UK and internationally in theatres, dance houses, galleries and public spaces including Sadler’s Wells, Tate Modern, The Lowry, Wales Millennium Centre, Serralves Museum Porto and Public Theater New York.

Performing Medicine 

Performing Medicine is a sector leader in arts based approaches to professional development in health and social care contexts

We run an award-winning programme of events, courses and workshops for health professionals and students. Our practical workshops are led by inspiring artists using techniques drawn from theatre, dance and the visual arts. We create supportive environments where participants can rehearse the skills necessary to thrive at work. Our public events create dialogue across arts and health, and our research is frequently sought for use in advocacy and policy change.

Since 2001 we have worked with more than 14,000 health professionals and students and we have long-standing partnerships with NHS Trusts and Higher Education Institutions across the UK, including Guy’s and St Thomas’ Trust and Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry.
