Description
I wish there could be a day where families came together and just said it all toeach other. Because then everyone would know it all, and there'd be nothingleft to hurt anyone. Sussex. London. Wiltshire. Northamptonshire. Wales. Over three decades, afamily spreads across the country, and the chord they made together starts tofray, the distance between them changing the music of their lives. A love song to the people who raised him, and a hymn to the bravery of ourbrief time on earth, Barney Norris's We Started to Sing premieres at the ArcolaTheatre, London, in May 2022.
