Michael Luntley’s ‘Tricaoraich’ + Olga Dermott Bond + Chris Barber + All Mouth @ Harbury Village Library
Jan 19 @ 7:30 pm – 10:30 pm
This will be the premiere performance of the full version of from this ground – a set of songs and poems exploring themes of identity, belonging and migration.
Songs performed by Michael Luntley‘s trio, poetry by award-winning poet Olga Dermott Bond, narration by Chris Barber and a special guest appearance by the a capella group All Mouth.
All monies – tickets and refreshment donations – are going to charities that support those who, for one reason or another, have had to leave the place they called home.  The show draws upon stories of the destitute who left Warwickshire in 1872 to find a better life in Brazil (that didn’t exist!) plus stories from contemporary migration narratives.
There will also be a display of a set of linocuts that Dee Luntley has made on themes from the show.
Booking is now open for this Sheep Dip.  As ever, book by email reply.  Tickets are also available at the Harbury Library desk.
