Strange Fruit and the Graeae Theatre Company performed a new work commissioned as part of Unlimited - the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad project celebrating arts, culture and sport by disabled and deaf people.

A gathering of gardeners and guardians took you through the memory of England's "green and pleasant land" in a deconsecrated churchyard in the heart of Greenwich.

While seedlings were tended, angels looked down from the top of 5 metre high sway poles, and an emotional story of love, loss and hope unfolded. This epic production took inspiration from the poetry of William Blake to create a contemporary Garden of Eden in which love, verdant growth and sweet smelling flowers struggled to survive the rise of the dark satanic mills and the ever changing environment.

All performances where held in St Alfege Park, Greenwich, SE10 as part of the Greenwich+Docklands International Festival.

The Garden was commissioned as part of London 2012’s Cultural Olympiad from an original idea conceived by Greenwich+Docklands International Festival.
