Colin Grant & Howard Grey

Tues 4 February, 7.45pm

A metaphor for the black presence in Britain? A spooky miracle of technology? Or both?

The true story of the lost photographs of Caribbean migrants at Waterloo Station in 1962, presumed unprintable for over 50 years and laid aside until new digital techniques allowed these important images to be salvaged. 

Colin Grant - author of Homecoming: Voices of the Windrush Generation - speaks to the photographer, Howard Grey, about this remarkable story, in a conversation illustrated by the photos themselves, shown as projections.

A new live literature production with text by poet Maria Jastrzębska, written in the extraordinary hybrid language of Ponglish (half-English / half-Polish). Snow Q reimagines Hans Christian Andersen’s story of The Snow Queen, combining words, music and visuals to explore contemporary themes of social isolation, gender, sexuality, migration and exile.

The work focuses on Gerda's quest to find Kai, and the acerbic interventions of Crow.
