4 PORTRAITS
Four songs each performed by a different fictional character: The Patient, The Manager, The Midwife and The Porter.
Drawn from hundreds of hours of conversation and reflection over many months across four hospitals in England.
Each character explores what it means to have a voice, how we make ourselves heard and how we listen to others.
