This roller-coaster journey through world-famous actor, singer and civil rights campaigner Paul Robeson’s remarkable life highlights how his heroic political activism led many to describe him as the forerunner of the civil rights movement. With much fiery oratory and some of his famous songs, including a dramatic rendition of Ol’ Man River, Tayo Aluko revives one of the 20th century’s most impressive but overlooked figures in this powerful performance. Presented by Surrey Civic Theatres.
