Creating Carnival A Sharing of Gifts 2022 by Global Grooves

A documentary following the creation of Global Grooves', 'A Sharing of Gifts' that premiered at The Queens Platinum Jubilee Pageant in June 2022. About A Sharing of Gifts Drawing upon our research into Greater Manchester’s industrial heritage through textiles and procession, Global Grooves presented a brand new piece of Carnival, proudly made in Manchester. This new presentation was a reflection of our global interdependence and a celebration of our shared heritage and identity, exploring the resourceful, progressive, and innovative approach to industry and processional Carnival arts from our past and present. We weaved together creative elements using traditional making techniques, musical phrasing, and dance movements that told the story of today’s Greater Manchester, proudly sharing our story on the global stage. Between March and June 2022, our Carnival Centre transformed into a hive of creative goodness, inviting musicians, dancers, makers, volunteers and friends from every corner of Greater Manchester to help create a new piece of work that will travelled to London with a 250 strong cast as part of The Platinum Jubilee Pageant on the 5th June 2022. Our breath-taking processional piece celebrated the deep cultural exchanges that take place when people travel and meet others who have vastly different experiences, ideas and ways of living and being. In Greater Manchester, the last 70 years has seen an incredibly rich exchange between people from commonwealth countries and beyond, forging a truly unique, global city-region. The project focused on our talented, diverse communities in Greater Manchester, showing that when we are open to new friendships and cultural collaborations anything is possible. We were delighted to be able to share this creative, celebratory and inclusive vision with audiences all over the world. About Global Grooves' Creating Carnival Programme Creating Carnival is an artists development programme for new Carnival practitioners designed to offer a complete pathway into the profession. The 2022 programme worked with established Carnival artists on the cusp of regional and national profile, and helped to move them to the next stage in their carnival careers. Our 2022 programme included Freya Bennett-Nielsen and Emma Marsh, both just 21 years old, who secured positions as the youngest producer and youngest musical director that worked on The Queens Jubilee Pageant.
