King Street Community Voices oral history project volunteers and interviewees have helped to create a new film being shown at the big screen in Fusion in the Forum (on your left as you walk towards the library). The filmshow includes wonderful archive footage of Norwich industries and crafts courtesy of the East Anglian Film Archive. King Street Community Voices recorded a commentary for one of the films, ‘Car Trip Through Norwich’ which takes a tour round the city streets in 1950. Interviewees were recorded describing the route, how buildings and streets have changed, plus their personal recollections of Norwich as it was 60 years ago. | King Street Community Voices oral history project volunteers and interviewees have helped to create a new film being shown at the big screen in Fusion in the Forum (on your left as you walk towards the library).
