'Working with TKP was delight from start to finish, a company who place Young People at the heart of their work, supporting, nurturing and challenging each individual along their journey... as a result the piece was of the highest quality and resonated with every audience member. Wouldn't have wanted any other company driving this special piece forward'
This stunning physical theatre show brought together a cast of Young Carers in Salford as well as professional actors and musicians. The dynamic physical story telling used puppetry, shadow work, movement and live music to bring this moving and powerful story to life. Young Carers performed on stage, many for the first time, multi rolling and playing instruments live on stage. The professional cast were seamlessly integrated throughout the piece to reflect the true nature of the collaborative, creative process where young people take the lead.
Performed at The Lowry in March 2019.
Absolutely stunning choreography and use of projection & light. Beautiful story telling of a very difficult subject - done with such care and grace. The young people should be so proud. A performance I'll never forget. I lost a parent at aged 15, you told my story too. Thank you.
