ESRC Festival of Social Science: 'Under Us All' tours the North-East in November
Play, based on Geography Teaching Fellow Michael Richardson's PhD research, tours as part of the Festival
Based on research undertaken by Michael Richardson as part of his PhD, the play 'Under Us All' will be touring North East England as part of the 2013 ESRC Festival of Social Science
Under Us All, a new one-man theatre production, presents the testimonies of three generations of a Tyneside Irish family. A grandfather, father and son discuss how industry, family, work and community have changed over the decades. Their stories show how attitudes have shifted from one generation to the next. Alongside the show Michael Richardson and Cap-a-Pie will be running a workshop where participants will be encouraged to take part in the research process by interviewing one another and sharing their memories, before looking at ways of communicating their findings through performance
Performances will take place at 4 venues across the North East:
6th November 2013, Newbiggin Maritime Centre, Church Point, Newbiggin by the Sea details
7th November 2013, Northern Stage, Barras Bridge, Newcastle upon Tyne details
8th November 2013, Customs House, Mill Dam, South Shields details
9th November 2013, Teeside University, Middlesborough details
