HOME TOWN STORY – A captivating journey through the back streets of Hull
Audiences are invited to meet in a secret location to embark on the captivating theatrical journey through the back streets of Hull in Home Town Story. Hear poetry from voices that shout from the rooftops, whisper round corners and echo through the squares in this brand new site-specific commission from Absolutely Cultured, which is part of this year’s BBC Contains Strong Language.
Written by award-winning poet and playwright Louise Wallwein and directed by acclaimed director, writer and designer Mark Murphy, Home Town Story features a cast of Hull’s finest poets, wordsmiths and actors, including Russ Litten and Women of Words, as well as visiting poet Zena Edwards, who will all bring the story of the city to life through poetry and performance.
Home Town Story runs from Friday 28 until Sunday 30 September 2018. Performances will take place each day at 1pm, 3.30pm and 5.30pm, with BSL interpreted performances at 5.30pm on Friday 28 September and 1pm on Saturday 29 September. The secret location will be revealed to ticket holders a few days before the show. Tickets are free and can be booked via the Event Brite website.
Family friendly but most suitable for ages 8+.
