Pray For Me
Pray For Me, written and performed by Sarah Adedeji is a powerful new work-in-progress exploring faith, Deafness and identity, as a Black Deaf woman confronts ideas of cure, belief and belonging through poetry, movement and live music by ISRA3L. Pray For Me is a raw, intimate and visually striking solo performance by Sarah Adedeji, exploring Christianity through the eyes of a Black Deaf woman navigating faith, culture and identity. Blending poetry, movement, dance and music, the show interrogates the painful and complex experience of being perceived as “in need of healing” within church spaces. Through personal storytelling and embodied expression, Sarah examines how Deafness is framed within Christian belief, and how Nigerian heritage, British culture and faith intersect, clash and coexist.
