GODIVA AWAKES
On 28 July 2012, Imagineer Productions 21st Century Godiva will awake to a spectacular performance involving dancers, actors, aerialists, musicians and pyrotechnicians. On 29 July 2012 carnivalists and 220 young people will process through Coventry city centre in celebration at the unveiling of this Godiva for the modern age. On 30 July 2012 - 5 August 2012, powered by 100 cyclists, Godiva will then journey to London to celebrate the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Godiva Awakes is part of Artists taking the lead, a series of 12 public art commissions across the UK to celebrate the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad, funded by Arts Council England.
Godiva Awakes is a world class piece of public art, made by mechanics, artists, theatre makers, puppeteers and engineers from Coventry, the region, nationally and internationally to the highest standards of contemporary craftsmanship.
