Strider Patton; an artist, anthropologist and educator was commissioned by the Good Chance Theater & Curran to do an educational mural project based off of The Jungle, a play set in a migrant camp in Calais, France.

HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD opened on Broadway in April 2018 at the Lyric Theatre, and is now the most awarded play in theatre history with 24 major UK theatre awards and 25 major U.S. awards, including six Tony Awards (Best Play).

For many Britons, the refugee camp at Calais must have seemed like the crucible of the European migration crisis in 2015. It was the focus of British media coverage: the place where British drivers became trapped in endless tailbacks as police searched vehicles for stowaways attempting to reach the promised land of Kent.

The first refugee story I covered was a famine in southern Sudan. An editor on the paper (now departed) implored me not to go. Sending a food critic to report on a famine was just bad taste. But who would you trust with bad taste if not a food critic?

The Jungle fund was established in 2018 in response to audiences wanting to support refugee causes highlighted in the show. To date The Jungle Fund has raised nearly $100,000 from audiences across London, New York and San Francisco. Every dollar you donate will support displaced people through its US registered organisation Choose Love inc.

A note from Carole, regarding the transitions & excitement ahead around #CURRAN2019.

When Mohamed arrived in Calais, the camp’s population was at its highest with over 8,000 people living there. He had experienced isolation during his journey across Europe. Now it was intensified. ‘I grew up in a village where every morning you have tea with your neighbours. [In the camp] you don’t spend time with your people. You are on your own, sleep alone and wake up on your own. This is my life now.’

Watch the transformation of the Curran stage as we prepare to invite you to THE JUNGLE.
