A SHOW which enjoyed a sell-out run at international performing arts festival PuSh in 2021 and acclaimed production at Battersea Arts Centre is coming to South Yorkshire.

Created by artist Jenni Jackson, Endurance examines how we ‘endure’, why we ‘endure’ and how women can use their innate inclination towards endurance, to tip the balance of power.

Exploring colonial legacies through the world of the Bolivian/Aymaran warrior Bartolina Sisa and modern-day women who are out-performing men at ultra marathon running, Jenni wants to know how we carry on when things get really hard.
