What was it?
During the JITNEY run at The Old Vic, Kestrel worked with with Headlong Theatre to share four powerful documentary films that we created alongside award-winning filmmaker Dorothy Allen-Pickard. Inspired by one of the central characters in Jitney, the screening was then followed by a talk hosted by Tinuke Craig (Director of Jitney) and Eleanor Henderson (Artistic Director of Kestrel).
This was the second outing for these beautiful films, after a first screening at the Close-Up Cinema in Shoreditch in April 2022. All four were screened onto the back wall of the Jitney set to the largest audience the Old Vic has had for a Voices Off event since the pandemic began.
