Chopped Liver & Unions

From Thurs 14 Aug View Venues, Dates & Times

If you’ve never heard of Sara Wesker, you’re not alone - but her largely forgotten story is a truly remarkable one. 

Born in 1901, the tiny yet larger-than-life Sara - the aunt of acclaimed playwright Sir Arnold Wesker - became a real trailblazer in the trade union movement, leading ‘the singing strikers of 1928’, battling fascists at Cable Street, and helping to shape the radical politics of her age. 

Paying loving tribute to her, this one-woman Blue Fire Theatre Company production is visiting Ludlow having played to sold-out audiences ‘from New York to Edinburgh’.
