She joined the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in 1991, working with Lois Keidan as Deputy Director of Live Arts, and holding programming, curatorial, and commissioning responsibilities.[4] The platform they created at the ICA is considered to have contributed to the growth of live art (as an artistic practice distinct from theatre or visual arts) in London and the UK during the 1990s.[5][6][7][8] In a 1994 article contributed by Bernardine Evaristo to the black arts listings magazine Artrage, Ugwu described live art as "a way of examining cultural and ethnic identity and its effectiveness as a means of constructing and deconstructing identities and representations of ourselves".[9]
While at the ICA, Ugwu compiled and edited a book of artworks and essays titled Let's Get It On: The Politics of Black Performance[10] that included contributions by bell hooks[11] and Paul Gilroy,[12] and an essay of her own.[13] It was "the first book to offer detailed analysis of black live art in Britain"[14] and, as a "response to the absence of black live art history", the publication has been described as a "landmark collection",[15] and "path-breaking".[16] It received an Honourable Mention from the Arnold Rubin Outstanding Publication Award Committee of the Arts Council of the African Studies Association (ACASA) in 1998.[17] As a writer, Ugwu also contributed to the Iniva/ICA exhibition catalogue Mirage: Enigmas of Race, Difference and Desire on the work of Frantz Fanon,[18][19] and the Companion to Contemporary Black British Culture.[20]
In 1997, Ugwu and Keidan left the ICA to form Keidan/Ugwu, "a company dedicated to locating time-based performance within a critical framework, but outside the institutional context".[21] In 1999, Ugwu co-founded the Live Art Development Agency (LADA) with Keidan, serving as co-director until 2000.[22][23][24] LADA has been described as "the most significant catalyst for the development of the Live Art sector in London and the UK more widely".[25] Ugwu and Keidan also worked as curators and consultants at international festivals around the world,[26] including the 1999 Festival De Beweeging in Antwerp.[27]
Ugwu produced the Millennium Dome Opening Ceremony, held on 31 December 1999.[40][41][42] In 2000, she left her position as co-director of the Live Art Development Agency to work as an independent producer on large-scale international events,[4] and was a producer of the Manchester Commonwealth Games Closing Ceremony in 2002.[41][42]
Frank Cottrell-Boyce, the writer of the Opening Ceremony, revealed that the London 2012 cauldron designed by Thomas Heatherwick was codenamed "Betty" after Ugwu's dog, in order to maintain secrecy.[52] A portrait of Ugwu with her dog Betty, taken by the photographer Jillian Edelstein, was commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery, London for its "Road to 2012: Aiming High" exhibition and primary collection.[53]
In 2013, Ugwu founded her own production company, Betty Productions.[54][55]
Ugwu served once more as Director of Ceremonies for the Baku 2017 Islamic Solidarity Games, and was also Executive Producer of the Baku 2017 Ceremonies.[64]
Ugwu was the Lead Consultant for the Baku World Expo 2025 Bid, vying against three other candidate cities: Osaka, Paris, and Yekaterinberg.[65] Ugwu also served as a Dubai World Expo 2020 Ceremonies Consultant.[42]
