Dalston Songs

Opens: 03/02/2010 Closes: 06/02/2010 Royal Opera House, London

Built around interviews with inhabitants of the mixed east London neighbourhood, the stories Helen Chadwick has woven into her incredible song-and-theatre production focus on immigration, and notions of home and love of mashed potato. A truly original folk / classical experience from the almost too talented singer, composer and director.
