Bristol Beacon Story Wall

I was invited by Cathy Mager to create the audio description for the Story Wall at the newly-refurbished Bristol Beacon. This graphic mural by Mel Northover captures the excitement and energy of performance through the drawn line, connecting and transforming as it explores the Bristol Beacon’s story.

Detail of story wall features Paul Robeson, Scholar, Actor, Athlete and Human Rights Activist

Over 400 artists are featured. Their stories are interwoven with the musical movements and world events that shaped and influenced the Beacon’s history.

I worked with Cathy to create a dynamic audio experience that would capture the energy of this venue’s vibrant history, that featured artists who have played there from Duke Ellington to Portishead. Narration was done by me and actor Margo Cargill. Have a listen at the link:
