The Tapestry of Voices is a whirlwind adventure of international dance theatre, live music and story-telling, all inspired by peoples’ desire to seek out and achieve their dreams!An immersive theatrical family performance, taking the audience on a journey through time; exploring characters, people and events which shaped lives in the North-East of England, told through drama, dance and live music.
Picture the scene. Two young explorers enter the exciting world of the Museum of Voices. They stumble across a curious treasure chest that unknown to them will change their lives forever. Opening the relic propels them on a journey of discovery and knowledge as they perceive generations of heritage inspired by instrumental moments in time. The assembled professional cast complied of talented performers from up and down the land will be lifting the lid on the past and propel the audience on a theatrical voyage they will never forget. The episodes reflect how people are forced or choose to ‘move on’ to better their lives, protect their families, their people, and their countries. The new show identifies key moments in the North East’s own journey including the birth of the modern railway (the Stockton and Darlington Railway) crafted by George Stephenson; The Durham Miner’s Story; The Suffragettes Movement in the North East, The Jarrow March; and how World War II integrated new heritage to the region from Windrush to Irish, Chinese and Indian migrants.
The Tapestry of Voices is a window into a world that has shaped our life as we know it today. Sample the social chemistry that moulded our community and pointed us towards this current direction.
