Nominated for an Olivier Award 2022
"I'll tell you one more thing. I got more songs in my head than I ever told you. I got enough to sing for days..."
1903, Somerset. Rooted in the land where she has lived her entire life, Louie Hooper's mind overflows with its songs – more than 300 of them passed down from her mother. Cecil Sharp, a composer visiting from London, fears England's folk songs will be lost forever and sets out on a mission to transcribe each and every one. He believes Louie's music should speak not just for this place but for the whole of England.
Nell Leyshon's Olivier Award-nominated play with songs originally heard on BBC Radio before a sold-out, highly acclaimed run at London's Hampstead Theatre. The production was revived in June 2022 due to popular demand.
