Cry For Me
Sensory Friendly
A dystopian cabaret about migrant labour, Cry For Me is a carousel of migrant lament for the living dead under capitalism.
Set in a not too implausible future where crying is just one more type of labour that can be outsourced to a cheap migrant workforce, Cry For Me draws on Romanian traditions of wailing. Babele bocitoare (buh-beh-leh bow-chi-twa-reh) are Romanian professional mourners: older women who go to funerals to cry for the deceased and their family. Like rappers, they improvise lyrics to music on the spot.
Access tickets £10. Access companions go free.
