SPEAK – at Outernet London

Outernet London

Tuesday 4 July–Sunday 9 July Outernet London 8am–11.30pm SPEAK, a new music and film installation commissioned by the Migration Museum exploring the relationship between care and migration to mark the 75th anniversary of Britain’s National Health Service (NHS), will be screened at Outernet London during the NHS's 75th anniversary week. Created by artists Emmanuel Sugo and Kaia Laurielle, SPEAK features the voices and perspectives of seven first- or second-generation migrant NHS workers. Through song and storytelling, these personal experiences form the emotional centre of the installation, exploring how their experience as migrants has informed their work, the challenges and sacrifices they have made, and the rewards they have found.  SPEAK offers a unique perspective on the complex relationship between care and migration, inviting audiences to question:  who are the people who care for us? And do we care enough about them? This free installation will make its London premiere on Tuesday 4 July  at the Now Pop One space at Outernet London, an immersive entertainment district located in the heart of the West End, and will be on display throughout the NHS 75th anniversary week as part of NHS 75: Passages on Migration and Care, an exhibition bringing together projects relating to migration and care within the NHS. SPEAK also forms the centre-piece of the Migration Museum’s new national touring exhibition Heart of the Nation: Migration and the Making of the NHS, opening at Leicester Museum & Art Gallery on 30 June 2023.   Credits Directed and Produced by Emmanuel Sugo Co-Director: Kaia Laurielle Cinematographer: Adenike Oke Editor: Juanita Apanari Music Director : Kaia Laureille Score and Sound Design: Aron Kyne Composers: Kaia Laureille, Aron Kyne NHS Performers and Storytellers Adil Akram Andrew Meyerson Jessica Cruz-Hutchings Lisbeth Cyriac Neena Jha Nicola Turner Yaneise Ramos Production Crew 1st Assistant Camera: Sam Hotson 2nd  Assistant Camera: Teddy Udsholt-Clayton 1st Assistant Director: Jolade Olusanya Grip: Josh Harrison Gaffer: Tupac Carroll Spark: Dylan Schultz-Soo Head of Costume: Delores Oblitey Costume Assistant: Renatha Hoga Hair: Rhonda Oblitey Makeup: Adwoa Busia Production Manager: Wofai JE Production Coordinator: Kassandra Gordon Post-house: Indetail Studios Post-producer: Michael Adeyeye Colourist: Charles Rare Artistic Director: Aditi Anand Special thanks Sophie Henderson Migration Museum Chavez Shillingford Thao Nguyen NHS Blundell Street Studios Supported by Garfield Weston, Arts Council England Image: A still from SPEAK, directed and produced by Emmanuel Sugo and co-directed by Kaia Laurielle.
