This project, developed in partnership with St Petrocs, welcomed anyone experiencing or having previously experienced homelessness to share their life stories.
Audiences joined us round the table for lunchtime stories, poetry and song – tender and rowdy, urgent and hopeful. A performative meal was shared by the audience and cast, with moments of beauty, a menu of stories, a difficult choice or two and extra helpings of rhythm and song, all created by our brilliant participants over a number of months.
This free one-off event took place at the Chapter House, Truro Cathedral, on Friday 24th May.
You can still look out for our cassette players containing stories from the group which are currently on a magical mystery tour around the county. Follow #SeenHeard to find out more. Alternatively you can listen below.
Seen/Heard was been developed in partnership with St Petrocs and co-created by Sarah Levinsky, Vicky Abbott, Karen Pirie, Jodie Walton, Rhys Wynne Jones, and the Relentlessly Burdened Poet, with design support from Mydd Pharo and food from Lou of OST Eatery.
Thank you to @thevintageshophiddenhelp for loan of crockery, and @soul.farm and @newquay_orchard for donation of produce for the meal.
SEEN/HEARD is part of the Hello Stranger project led by Wildworks and is funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
