?Where The Working
Boats Went? ? A Special Presentation
White Horse Folk Festival is pleased to announce that there will be a special
presentation of the multi-media show ?Where The Working Boats Went? by
the Bedfordshire duo Life & Times at this year?s festival.
ABOUT THE SHOW
This show in song, drama, music, and dance tells the history of the canals
through the eyes of the canal folk themselves at different periods of the
canals? history. The show contains 12 new songs, some rarely heard and some
old favourites as well as many genuine canal stories and canal facts.
The canals seem to have been with us forever but the first ?modern? canal was
commissioned by the 3rd Duke of Bridgewater in 1759. ?Canal Mania? swept the
country when people could see the benefits of water transport for the
products of the Industrial Revolution. A decline and almost complete demise
in the 1950s saw a reinvention of the waterways as a leisure facility but,
with an eye for the ?green? option, could we see a return of some cargoes to
the waterways?
The show is in two halves of 45 minutes each and is suitable for all the
family. It will be performed at Grove Rugby Club starting at 5pm with tickets
costing ?6 for adults and ?3 for under 16?s. Tickets are available from WHFF
Box Office, 1 Membury Way, Grove OX12 0BP or call 01235 765445.
With over 20 events from Friday evening through to Sunday afternoon there is
something for everyone at White Horse Folk Festival, including concerts,
dances, music sessions, dance workshops and displays and lots of singing.
Full details of all events, ticket prices and venues can be found at www.whitehorsefolkfestival.co.uk.
