Crossing the Line
Step back in time and delve into the rich tapestry of migration tales from Black Country's industrial legacy…
It’s 1958 in a drop forge in Oldbury. A wild cat strike is in progress. A faulty machine has injured a worker and it has brought the factory to a halt. The cleaner is looking for the resulting mess to clear up and an irate businessman turns up looking for his missing consignment of hammers.
There’s more going on here, than meets the eye – what is driving each of our characters – and can it possibly turn out well for all of them?
Following the success of last year’s “A Spanner in the Works”, Black Country Living Museum and Black Country Touring are excited to present “Crossing the Line”, a new show as part of Summer Lates at the Museum.
Fridays 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th August
4:30pm, 5:30pm, 6:30pm, 7:30pm
Black Country Living Museum, Dudley, DY1 4AL
