08 March: Chopped Liver and Unions (Matinee)
Enjoy our intimate and historic courthouse venue for a powerful live performance of Chopped Liver and Unions.
"The world is changed by the women you push too far."
It's 1956 and the global political climate is uncertain. In the UK, Sara Wesker is writing a letter, reflecting on her life filled with struggle and triumph.
Back in the day, Sara led the “singing strikers of 1928” to fight for better working conditions for female garment workers in the East End. She was a fierce advocate for workers' rights, fighting at the iconic Battle of Cable Street, inspiring a generation of playwrights and embroiling herself in a high-profile love affair. But did her love of the cause cost her the love of her life? And was it worth it?
This 5-star reviewed, OffFest nominated play featuring some of the iconic songs sung on Sara’s picket lines, has sold out in New York, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and in theatres across the UK.
On International Women’s Day, join us in celebrating the remarkable, yet largely forgotten, life of this trailblazing woman. Her story deserves to be heard—and now it will be.
