CALL MR ROBESON
Thus starts a review of Call Mr Robeson at an international Fringe Festival in Brighton, UK, at which the play picked up two awards. Call Mr Robeson is being performed at the Cultch between Feb 11th and 14th as part of Black History Month. The tour is being generously supported by the International Longshore and Warehouse Union.
The review continues:
Tayo Aluko’s portrayal of Robeson is spot on. This is … a thrilling, moving and marvellously
entertaining musical drama. Aluko’s singing of Robeson songs like Ol’ Man River and Steal
Away is totally soulful and convincing – just like this show!” *****
