In 1919, Badgersbridge Village Hall held a special place in Margaret's heart, serving as the last place she anticipated encountering Grace, a woman who had known and cherished Margaret's brother. Yet, fate had other plans in store for them when their paths crossed in this chance encounter. What began as a mere meeting of two strangers would ultimately lead to an unlikely partnership that would reshape the course of both their lives.
Fast-forward to the year 2019. Mirjana, a representative from the care company, stood eagerly waiting to meet Sean's mother, with the intention of assisting her in maintaining her independence within the comfort of her own home. Mirjana hailed from Sarajevo, a city she had called home since her teenage years, having bravely escaped the war-torn landscape to find solace in the peaceful village. The village hall, with its rich history and serene atmosphere, became a sanctuary for her, serving as an unexpected bridge between her past and present.
With a tapestry of music, waltzing, and unexpected connections, Deirdre Kinahan's play "Crossings" gracefully danced across a century, exploring the profound themes of return, resettlement, and adaptation. This captivating production had its debut on a UK tour in 2018, in a collaborative venture between Pentabus Theatre Company and New Perspectives.
Through its poignant narrative and captivating performances, "Crossings" invited audiences to reflect on the complexities of human migration, the resilience of the human spirit, and the transformative power of unexpected connections. It reminded us that even in the most unexpected of places, the seeds of change and growth can take root, paving the way for new beginnings and the forging of lasting bonds.
