This talk will survey the work of American photographer Helen Levitt, who is best known for her depictions of working-class children on the streets of New York City c.1940. Rather than consider her work within polarised social attitudes towards children as either innocent or primal, this talk argues that Levitt’s representation of the relationship between childhood and the street must be understood through her concerns with editing, movement, and public life. Understanding Levitt’s work in relation to aggregation and sequence, rather than through the dominant lens of primitivism, romanticism and the private subject allows for a historic reappraisal of an American modernism that has largely fallen out of sight.

Being a performer takes heart, grit, and relentless determination—and we're here to support you on that journey! Walk & Talk is anew FREE monthly Saturday stroll in a London park for actors. Once a month we’ll gather in a different London green space for a 90-minute Saturday morning walk, ending in a cosy local pub or café. It will be a relaxed and agenda-free space to share experiences, gain insights and connect with fellow performers. Think of it as a stroll with friends in the park; nothing more, nothing less. Plus, we’re family-friendly! Feel free to bring along your babies, children and dogs! We welcome all who want to be part of this nurturing and supportive environment. This walk starts at Gospel Oak Overground station and will take us across Hampstead Heath taking in Parliament Hill View Point where you get a great view of the city of London. We will finish at Spaniard Inn (on the other side of the heath). Who are Actors+Co? Meet Bea and Nicole, otherwise known as Actors+Co. One is a life coach and yoga teacher, the other is an acting coach and parent performer. We're passionate about creating welcoming, and non-judgmental space for professional actors to connect, share, and be heard. Our goal is to foster a network of actors who uplift one another. As Brené Brown says, ‘The two most powerful words when we're in struggle are 'Me, too.’ We echo that sentiment by creating an environment where vulnerability meets empowerment, the impossible becomes possible, and personal growth and courage can flourish. The ‘+Co’ stands for many things: connection, community, courage...coffee! We’re here to support you on your journey Let’s walk and talk!
