This play, titled 'The Reunion', shows a gathering of older black women reminiscing about their youth and the music that was the back drop to their younger years. It sees them meeting up in a disused club and finding the old record player, their youthful selves come to life through playing their favourite music.
The women talk about the clubs they went to back in the day and the audience will hear such tracks as 'Sweetest Feeling', 'Ring my Bell', 'Outstanding' and many more. At the close, audience members are encouraged to get up and dance with the women to the tracks.
We celebrate AWOL!
It is free to attend. All the women are graduates from the Royal Exchange Elders Project 2022 - 2025 and are singers and actors in their own right.
