Join Tayo Aluko, whose one man Show Call Me Mr Robeson has thrilled audiences across continents, to be part of this unique event.

Aluko, actor, writer and baritone recreates the iconic moment 70 years on from 1949 when Paul Robeson, world famous singer, actor and activist, gave an impromptu performance from the back of truck to 10,000 people in bomb-damaged Lord Street.

The world renowned African American singer, who sold out venues across the world, regularly performed for free in outdoor spaces so ‘working people’ could enjoy his voice.
