The London International Festival of Theatre is a biennial festival taking place every other summer in theatres, arts venues and sites across London.
LIFT 2012 will take place from 11 June - 15 July 2012. The full 2012 festival programme will be announced in March 2012.
Established in 1981 by Rose Fenton and Lucy Neal, LIFT, London International Festival of Theatre, has risen to become one of the most important events in the British arts scene, with an influence that reaches far beyond London. Working with artists from across the world to find new ways of seeing the city, LIFT's rich and varied programming has presented extraordinary events in both conventional theatres and in more unusual spaces such as disused power stations, churches and canal basins.
Founded on the conviction that theatre has the power to surprise and stimulate as well as entertain, LIFT has constantly challenged the status quo and continues to actively engage different audiences and communities. LIFT both leads and looks over the ever-changing landscape of contemporary theatre and London itself, offering a panoramic view that will take your breath away.
