Tony Benn and Roy Bailey: Coming to Eastbourne

Saturday 14th April, 7.30pm at the Birley Centre (Eastbourne College) as part of the Eastbourne Festival

The Writing On The Wall is a collaboration between two eminent and respected socialists.

Tony Benn, now in his 87th year, is Britain’s longest serving MP. Famously outspoken and often controversial, he spent 50 years in parliament, many of those on the front benches. Roy Bailey also has a career stretching over 50 years as a folk singer and, in that time, he has appeared all over the world. He has been described as one of folk music’s finest carriers of the people’s message and interpreters of both traditional and contemporary song.
Together they present a performance of writings, speeches and songs taken from the words of socialists, radicals, chartists, suffragettes and revolutionaries that illustrate nearly 1,000 years of campaigning for justice, freedom and equality.

Tickets £21.50 and £18.50 only from the Hailsham Pavilion (01323)841414
