Happy Birthday HMDT!

GriffSome of the greatest nights I have ever experienced at The Hackney Empire have been thanks to HMDT. It is such a buzz to see the place filled with such enthusiasm: reflecting the community, reflecting a simple adoration of music and reflecting the future of the theatre as a hub for people-performance. I am always happy to see them back in the Empire. GRIFF RHYS-JONES, ACTOR

MargaretThe work of HMDT is pioneering and inspiring, and its production of On London Fields was one of the most exciting community events I’ve ever seen – a great show, great teamwork, bold and exciting material, and a really keen audience. It was a most enjoyable evening, a fine showcase for all the hard work HMDT does all the year round in schools and the community. MARGARET DRABBLE, AUTHOR

SallyWorking for HMDT was a most unexpectedly joyous experience... the production evolved into something quite special, with all sorts of people from the Hackney area involved. There was an amazing mix of talent, ambition and aspiration in the large chorus of all ages, and it was a pleasure to have taken part. SALLY BURGESS, MEZZO-SOPRANO

ASMFThrough its collaboration with HMDT on Operaction Hackney the Academy has seen at first hand how this innovative and inspiring organisation helps people of all ages and backgrounds discover and develop their talents in and through music. Their vision, passion and determination have achieved extraordinary things in Hackney. Long may it continue! ACADEMY OF ST MARTIN IN THE FIELDS

JonathanAs a composer always on the lookout for ways of working within my own community, I have had great experiences with HMDT. For The Palace in the Sky, a community opera at The Hackney Empire, they knew exactly where to find the right musicians and animateurs; and writing a children’s opera for them (The Hackney Chronicles) was a joy from star t to finish. I particularly enjoy working with HMDT because they have such good ideas for projects. By combining lots of different types of learning within a creative process, they literally as well as metaphorically take children to places they’ve never been. I believe some of their ideas are ground-breaking, and I’ve certainly used them as models in working with other arts organisations. I’m proud of the work we’ve done together. JONATHAN DOVE, COMPOSER

OrphyI have always found working in East London to be an especially rewarding experience with the added bonus of having attended school at the Hackney Free & Parochial School in the seventies. The chance to put something back into the community from where I started has been made all the more easy by working with HMDT on the various interesting and innovative programmes they have initiated. ORPHY ROBINSON, MUSICIAN
