1988 – Created for performance to older people in residential homes, this production had a clear audience focus, but as with all Green Candle’s shows the impetus was artistic.
Your Prayer was an ambitious project based on the recorded reminiscences of 2 Hackney pensioners, one from Poland, the other from Jamaica. Heralded as “a rich, emotional tapestry in which multi-fragmented dance is newly minted to produce living history” by the Times Educational Supplement, Your Prayer contrasted the very different histories and cultures of the two women, both now living in London’s East End.
