Human Cargo
Songs and stories of
trafficking and transportation
At
Walthamstow Folk - Sunday 31 January
The world's oceans
have long teemed with ships bearing humans in distress.
Human
Cargo traces paths
through slavery, emigration, the highland clearances and convict
transportation. This new show blends first-hand accounts with
traditional folk songs and shanties, plus a few modern songs.
A dark but
invigorating evening, with plenty of opportunities to join the singing.
A special
theatrical evening.
Written and
presented by Matthew
Crampton with Chris
Hayes, Daisy Johnson & Jan North, aka The London Lubbers.
At least once a year we try to put on an evening that is a little
different to a normal Folk Club Guest night. Not to be missed.
More info at the club website
You can also buy tickets for this evening and future nights online or
at the club if you are attending one Sunday. Or pay on the night but
remember to be early.
