Human Jam

“Part of Camden Roar, a festival celebrating CPT’s 25th anniversary, Human Jam tells the story of a local park (St James Garden) where work on HS2 has resulted in the largest exhumation of graves ever seen in Europe. Created by CPT’s artistic director Brian Logan and co-devised with Shamira Turner (who you may know from Little Bulb) the show looks at the history of this burial ground through the centuries. People from all walks of life were among the 60,000 buried at the site and the show should be a fascinating insight into life and death in the 18th and 19th centuries—and our attitudes to their remains today, now they have got in the way of transport infrastructure.”
