Call My Name, Call Me Home
A Light Night Leeds commission
imitating the dog with Hope & Social
A life in a song.
A lifetime of memories in 6 minutes.
A figure arrives on a train to start a new life in Leeds. Buildings and walls transform and shift to show fifty years of spaces alive with time and stories. Roads, streets, bars, hospitals and flats form and disappear in this hymn to a city, a poem which maps the journey of a life onto the topography of Leeds.
Call My Name, Call Me Home is a collaboration between Leeds’ own musicians Hope & Social and digital storytellers imitating the dog. Filled with dazzling projection-mapping visuals, heartfelt storytelling and original music, and featuring the involvement of Leeds residents, it’s a glorious celebration of a city and its people.
