Drama in the docks

Took place: January - March 2007

Amaziah: ‘I now acknowledge that there is history behind almost everything.’

Jose:  ‘I met wonderful people and got new friends.’

A group of people who are currently unemployed worked with drama facilitators to create a series of short performances reflecting issues in contemporary London. The group worked in Museum in Docklands, part of the Museum of London Group, and used the galleries and collections to inspire their work.

The performances which were written, edited and recorded by the group, focus on topics including immigration, CCTV, 7/7 bombing and late night shopping. You can view the performances and learn more about the project below:
