Search Party is the collaboration of artists Pete Phillips and Jodie Hawkes.

Since 2005 Search Party have created performances for studio, gallery and public space throughout the UK and Europe. Search Party are committed to making immediate, hopeful performances that engage broad and diverse audiences. Search Party’s work attempts to re-negotiate the relationship between artist and audience, creating temporary communities, inviting spectators to become co-collaborators in the live event. Search Party playfully explore ideas of duality, fragility, duration, sport and the relationship between people and places.

Search Party are members of Residence, an artist-led organisation based in Bristol, comprising of artists and companies who make theatre, performance and live art. www.residence.org.uk
