A musical biography of Paul Robeson’s life narrated and sung by Tayo Aluko. Tickets £12/£10 concessions available from the Norwich Puppet Theatre. Paul Robeson is a great and famous actor, singer and civil rights campaigner. When he gets too radical and outspoken for the establishment’s liking he is branded a traitor to his country, is harassed and denied opportunities to perform or travel. The show features some famous songs and speeches, including a dramatic rendition of Ol’ Man River and a spectacularly defiant testimony to the Senate House Un-American Activities Committee. It has been highly acclaimed by the press and the following are some quotes:- •A stunning piece of musical theatre… high quality drama, first class singing Fringe Review, Edinburgh Fringe 2010 •Excellent…convincing…gripping… inspiring production. Broadway Baby •Never less than utterly believable. British Theatre Guide •Simply told but immensely powerful. The Scotsman Tayo Aluko has kindly agreed to donate a share of the proceeds to the work of the Norwich Stop the War Coalition. {{Norwich Scoop footer|}}
