Meet me at the cemetery gates
From recollections of playing the Lone Ranger just after the war and recipes for foraged rose hip jam to murderous tales of carrion crows and the history of scrapyard meadow, all threaded through with field recordings of wildlife and bird song.
Radio journalist Jo Morris spent days recording the thoughts and memories of regular visitors to the Cemetery Park. Tower Hamlets resident and producer Susanna Grant has collected and woven them together in this unique exploration of the borough’s history as a refuge and home for immigrants.
A FOR NOW production. All original music composed and arranged by Darren Hayman. This production is supported by Arts Council England.
