About this Event

Somewhere Over the Bay Bro is a story about community, family, loss and connection.

This a story of a woman who left her community of Tiger Bay in 1945 and returns today to find herself still welcome. The play delves into the death of community through the mourning of her father and explores what it really means to feel that there is no place like home.

Featuring an all-star Butwtown cast, Somewhere Over the Bay Bro is artist Kyle Legall’s answer to The Wizard of Oz through the lens of Tiger Bay.
Join us on Bonfire Night at the Eli Jenkins pub for a night celebrating the music from the show, interwoven with poetry and extracts from the script. It will be an explosive night to remember!

Kyle's story will also be available to download online - you can listen before coming to the night.

Anthony Drumtan Ward - Reggae artist extraordinaire presents the Over the Bay Bro Band, headlined by the awesome Nadia Griffiths and featuring the one and only talent that is Anthony Carera aka Wella, the genius that is Joel on keys, the jaw-dropping Adjua on bass, the mesmerising Sadie on horns and all ably hosted by the brilliant Ali Goolyad.
