Being Human Festival: Graveyard Voices - Cathays Cemetery

Through a fruitful partnership with Cardiff City Council, the University of South Wales (USW) has produced a range of public performance works across the city. Working closely with the Council’s Cemeteries and Bereavement Services, USW has brought ‘history to life’ with performers creating short scenes relating to the fascinating stories of the people buried in the Cemetery. The free event consolidates popular heritage walks with live performances that re-create the sounds and stories of the cemetery, its rich history and community relevance. Led by the School of Advanced Study, University of London, in partnership with the Arts & Humanities Research Council, the British Academy and the Wellcome Trust, the Being Human festival is the first and only national festival of the humanities in the UK. The festival demonstrates the breadth, diversity and vitality of the humanities, their accessibility and relevance to people’s lives, and that research in the humanities is vital for the cultural, intellectual, political and social life of the UK and globally. The festival attracted the participation of more than 60 universities and independent research organisations. These institutions, along with more than 100 cultural and community partners, organised 163 events across the UK.
