Sweet Mother

The play is based on real stories of family and friendships in one of Liverpool’s strongest communities. Sweet Mother is an oral history project created using verbatim interviews with four real women who became friends through the shared experience of raising families in 1960s, 1970s and 1980s Toxteth. It looks at the previously untold stories of white women who fell in love with, married and raised families with black men in the Liverpool 8 community during a time of racial unrest.

This event takes place at St Luke’s Bombed Out Church, Leece Street, Liverpool L1 2TR
