We will perform dramatic readings from a book called Mules Masters and Mud by local author G.J.Griffiths. Graham captures the Zeitgeist of the times and will read from a chapter covering events on the day of Peterloo. Local folk group Trebuchetwill perform traditional and contemporary music and songs, marking key events of the era.
As an exhibition piece we will be displaying mill art with an interpretation . These pieces are interactive and can be handled but are a talking point for before and after the session. This is a table top display.
