Inside an ambulance, a paramedic on a break faces up to the consequences of her choices. What makes someone worthy of care today – and what made them worthy 200 years ago?

​

An interactive installation and performance piece, audiences experience a monologue and are invited to explore poetry hidden in plain sight, whilst listening to an audio soundscape. 

​

Part of 15 artistic interventions inspired by those who died during the Peterloo Massacre of 1819, but also by the lives, stories and concerns of today’s Mancunians: from zero-hours contracts to climate change.
