Summary: Rachael Lines, FRONTLINEdance, co-created and engaged with staff, patients, visitors at Royal Stoke, County Hospital Stafford, and Queens Hospital, Burton. Together we created 'Forget Me Knot' - A contemporary dance and music performance and participatory work. Greg Hall created a beautiful song with patients and visitors which he sang and played live whilst dancers Clare Reynolds and Mary Prestige danced, with Rachael and the staff dancing and interacting with patients. A second dance was created whilst Greg played his Cello - a composition made specifically for this work. This included dancing with the patients. The work took us onto wards with multiple bays, side rooms, lounge areas and extended into a community hospital tour. The work was really well received and supported by hospital staff.

The biannual performances toured the oncology, neuromedical, neurosurgical, cardiac, renal dialysis and mixed surgical units offering improvised, bespoke performances for children unable to leave their beds, as well as performances for groups in play spaces and corridors. Pop-up performances were also created in hospital public spaces for patients, their families and hospital staff to enjoy.
