"...when I was seven years old, I would sit on the trunk of my dad's car and stargaze every night - wondering what was out there."
Dr Camille Alleyne
To coincide with the 50th anniversary of the first man to land on the moon, Hoxton Hall is pleased to present Chasing Rainbows.
Chasing Rainbows skilfully unveils the story of Ama, driven and accomplished, she's set to be the first Caribbean woman in space. This visually stunning, aerial performance captures a universal story about the tensions of contemporary motherhood.
Ama is ambitious, resisting conformity and determined to make something of her life. As she orbits the Earth, she prepares an address for her daughter's graduation ceremony. Whilst doing so, she considers the loss that taints her success and the cost of "chasing rainbows".
Inspired by the life of Trinidadian born aerospace engineer, Dr Camille Alleyne, Chasing Rainbows contemplates why Ama is not considered an inspiration to little girls with big dreams, but condemned as a ruthless career woman who abandoned her child to pursue her career goals.
"an ambitious piece of spoken word that's rich with detail"
