Local Girl Wins Silver at Dance World Cup by Dia Stronach

A student from Chiswick School has won silver at an international dance contest. 15-year-old Chiswick resident Freya Rogers has won silver at this month’s Dance World Cup after a year-long delay. Representing England in the Junior Ballet solo, Freya performed the Harlequinade variation to huge praise from the judges. The competition took place on 10 August at the Telford International Centre. It had been delayed from 2020 due to Covid-19 restrictions, and the return was welcome news for an industry which was hit hard by lockdowns. Dancers for the last year and a half have been unable to access studios and schools, and many have been out

Freya plans to begin auditioning for full-time ballet schools this Autumn. She stretches every day, and dances or trains for at least three to five hours a day five or six days a week, and says that her dream school would be the Vaganova Ballet in St Petersburg. Located in the home of ballet, the Vaganova Ballet is the home of the Marinsky Ballet, one of the world’s leading ballet companies, and has passed alumni on to companies as prestigious as the Bolshoi Ballet, The Royal Ballet, American Ballet Theatre and Mikhailovsky Ballet. Freya said: “All the online classes I had to do have been worth it. It has been very hard over the last 18 months, but this success means everything. I really hope it means I am well on my way to becoming a professional.”

of work with public venues closed. Although a relatively new competition, the Dance World Cup is a large-scale event, with over 120,000 children and young people from around the world entering in the qualifying rounds to represent their country. Despite being the youngest entry in the category, Freya was placed ahead of a number of students at full-time ballet schools. Freya inherited her love of ballet from her grandmother, and began taking classes when she was just three whilst living in Moscow. She continued learning at Chiswick Theatre Arts before moving on to become a Junior and later Senior Associate of the Royal Ballet School. She also studies at Masters of Ballet, a West London school run by Elena Glurjidze, a former Principal Ballerina at English National Ballet, and Olga Semenova, a graduate of Saint Petersburg’s prestigious Vaganova Academy of Ballet.

A Night in November Launches 25th Anniversary Production in Chiswick The 25th Anniversary Production of A Night in November has launched at The Chiswick Playhouse. When Marie Jones’ incendiary oneman show first launched in Ireland, extra security had to be placed in and around the theatre. A Night in November tells the story of how one man is inspired to change his life after witnessing an incredibly sectarian football match in Belfast. The show takes place at the height of the Troubles as Protestant dole clerk Kenneth McCallister, played by Matthew Forsythe, attends the now-infamous Windsor Park World Cup Qualifier between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in 1993. Horrified by what he sees, Kenneth can no longer go through his life as a cookie-cutter Belfast

Protestant, finding himself at odds with his wife, his friends, his community. As the tension comes to a head, he finds himself launched onto a journey which will change his life forever. 25 years on, the world looks very different to when the play was first shown. "It’s a history piece,” says director Matthew McElhinney. "A chance to reflect back on how far we’ve come in Northern Ireland, but it seems as relevant today as it was 25 years ago. It’s great to be putting it on in England!” Actor Matthew Forsythe adds: "It’s a great opportunity for people in

thing you were used to as a child, you thought there was nothing to it. And now it’s an amazing chance to look back at how far we’ve come as a football team and as a nation.” The Soda Bread Theatre’s production went on an enforced hiatus following lockdown, and is now bursting back onto the stage sharper, slicker, and more resonant than ever. To celebrate the 25 years since its first writing, the show now opens with Kenneth walking along the bank of the Seine on the night Irish fans were awarded the Grand Vermeil for ‘exemplary showmanship’, looking down at the crystal-clear waters and comparing them to the polluted lake he once looked down into in Belfast. With the themes of identity and culpability so poignant today, McElhinney explains: "We’re so happy to be in Chiswick. The opportunity to have a venue like this is a great platform-- this play is West End quality and standard. We have a journey for this in our minds.” In the intimate space of The Chiswick Playhouse, the show’s understated set design and backdrop place all eyes on the incredible performance of Forsythe as he spins the world

England, in London, to learn about Northern Ireland.” McElhinney agrees. "We’re hoping that people will come away from this with at least an insight into the quirkiness and the strife and the difficulty that there is with identity in Northern Ireland, with being British and Irish. It really tackles those questions, I think it’s a real eye-opener for people.” Indeed, at moments the play can be truly heart-shattering as Kenneth struggles with the realisation of that he has unwittingly been a party to, the terror of the match and the slow process of unwelcome accountability that follows. The audience find themselves rolling from riotous laughter to a horrifying silence with whipcord speed as Kenneth is exposed to the best and worst elements of human nature, one after another after another. Forsythe does an incredible job of managing the tone as the play whips from horrifying to hilarious to triumphant. "I grew up around this play,” he explains. "It’s one of the first plays I’ve ever seen, the first play I fell in love with and thought, I want to be a part of this. I was at the match, too, and it’s the sort of

to come from our wee country. Now 25 years after the events and more recently after Brexit, parts of Northern Ireland believe they are more British than those in Chiswick or Finchley. Identity is still at the fore in Northern Ireland and reactions to the NI protocol shows it can’t be taken for granted but I believe through dialogue it is possible to change.” Forsythe brings a huge range of characters to life, from bombastic football fans in New York and surly old men of Belfast to Kenneth’s hilariously snippish wife and understatedly confident Catholic boss. "It has the potential to be a really impactful night at the theatre,” says McElhinney. "The courage to change themselves is the real takeaway.” The play has now had two nominations from Off West End for Lead Performance In A Play (Matthew Forsythe) and Sound Design (Garth McConaghie), as well as a Standing Ovation Nomination from London Pub Theatres. McConaghie said: “It was a privilege working with Soda Bread Theatre on A Night in November, by Marie Jones. The play was years ahead of its time when first

around him into the backdrop of Kenneth’s confusion, anxieties, and ultimate triumphs. "It’s a great chance for me,” he says. "I resonate a lot with the character Kenneth, I went on a similar sort of journey but at a younger age. I grew up in a Protestant household, grew up in a divided society, and with that you build up this fake knowledge of the other side. I just try to tell the story as truthfully as possible. I play about 20 other characters onstage, it’s a big multi role, and I love being able to colour those characters in. It’s Kenneth’s view and he sees them with a negativity that’s been highlighted, the only thing that’s been seeping into his brain all this time, and as the play progresses he just can’t go on without doing something about it. I don’t know another one-man play like it.” Writer Marie Jones commented: "The actor, director and producer of this production of Night in November were not even teenagers when this play was first performed. The fact that more than 25 years on it still resonates with them is humbling and the passion they bring to re-staging it for another generation is incredibly exciting. “This show is one of the best

Chiswick Cheese Market Partners Up with Honest Burger by Dia Stronach

The founders of the Chiswick Cheese Market have teamed up with Honest Burger on chiswick High Road to create their newest local specialty: the Cheesewick. According to Honest Burger, the burger is named after an older name for the Chiswick area, which was Old English for ‘cheese farm’. Honest Burger said: “Working with the Chiswick Cheese Market founders, we tasted many great cheeses and settled on a combination of two cheeses from High Weald Dairy in Sussex and matched them with a sharp Smoky Tomato Relish made nearby from The Ealing Relish Company.” Served with a side of Honest

Burger’s signature rosemary fries, the Cheesewick is a little sloppy to start, but quickly calms down into a deliciously meaty rare burger, which is not noticably cheesier than other Honest Burger offerings, but made with cheese our reviewer can’t speak highly enough of. It’s composed of beef, pancetta, Smoked Ashford Forester's and Sussex Saint Giles cheeses from High Weald Dairy, The Ealing Relish Company Smoky Tomato Relish, red onion and

There is no existing register of sex workers in the UK, and many are unable to access regular medical services due to fear of arrest, deportation, or other complications.

Many reference a fear of their work being pathologised, or of being pressured to leave their work regardless of their circumstances. Whilst many are working completely legally, there is still a fear of mistreatment due to their occupation. Sex workers have been hit hard by the pandemic, with lockdowns limiting many in their ability to earn and forcing people to reduce their prices and boundaries. This has meant that many are struggling more whilst working in more unsafe circumstances, and for many social distancing has been impossible. During lockdown, SWARM set

up a hardship fund to support sex workers. This was funded by donations, and distributed around £250,000 in grants. This initiative has been launched to try and make the vaccine as accessible as possible for a vulnerable group of the population. SWARM currently have five outreach staff, all of whom are current or former sex workers in the South West London area. They hope to soon expand the vaccine programme across London. Users will not need to be registered with the NHS, and are assured that no information will be shared with the police or the home office.
