The Production
Hoxton Story was an intimate site-specific walkabout performance through a regenerated London community. A visual and aural montage of facts, fictions and verbatim testimony culminating sound and video installations around Hoxton, an interactive website, on the street performances, a book and interview archive.
Collaborating artists included writer and director Lisa Goldman; set designer Jon Bausor; contemporary artist Leo Asemota; lighting designer Jenny Kagan; sound designer Kate Tierney and digital artists Elvina Flower and James Smith. Performers from Hackney's Young People's Theatre worked alongside a group of actors that included Tam Dean Burn. The Producer was Tim Jones of Solar Associates.
Hoxton Story opened on September 10, 2005 at Hoxton Hall to sold out performances.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
“The myth of unlimited production brings war in its train as inevitably as clouds announce a storm.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
