About the Show
Forced child migration is a little known and dark part of the history of Britain. More than 100,000 children from Britain were sent overseas (to places including Australia and Canada) with the promise of finding a better life. Some did find the happy lives they longed for; many others found only hardship, abuse and loneliness. The Ballads of Child Migration is a tribute to those children, some of whom were sent abroad as recently as 1970.
The concert is presented as a series of songs, narration, slides, audio and film clips.
