Saturday 26th November, 7.30pm
A fundraising evening in aid of Windows for Peace
Historian and Folk Singer, Professor Will Kaufman presents his fascinating and captivating “live documentary” that sets the songs of Woody Guthrie in the context of the American 1930s – the Dust Bowl, the Depression, the New Deal and the state of popular music itself. Altogether the show highlights the blending of music and radical politics that marks Guthrie’s most powerful work.
“No one can understand the American people without listening to Woody Guthrie. Will Kaufman’s doing important work here.” – Tom Paxton
“I thank Will Kaufman for introducing a new generation of Europeans to ‘the other America’. It’s a wonderful job he’s doing.” - Pete Seeger
“I am paraphrasing Woody Guthrie when I say, ‘Anyone spreading the word about the music, writing, art and humanity of Woody Guthrie sure is a true friend of mine!’ Keep up the great work, Professor Will!” - Ralph McTell
