INTERGENERATIONAL JUKEBOX

BCG has been giving a bit of our expertise to a community arts project in Wood Green, London.  The project – titled Intergenerational Jukebox – brought together professional artists, actors, youngsters and retired people to perform and create a musical together at a community centre. This show was based on the life stories of mostly Indian immigrants and their long journey from India to first Kenya and then finally the UK.  It told stories of youth, travel love; but also stories of displacement, sorrow and loss.

We performed the piece to a full house two nights in a row at the Asian Centre in Wood Green. Our role in the show was to provide support for script development, visual design, live visual projections as well as the sound design for the show.  You can see some of the visual examples here:
