Into the Melting Pot

This performance is a concertplay (where music and theatre collide) written by award-winning writer Clare Norburn and directed by BAFTA-nominated Nicholas Renton. Spain, 1492. At twilight on her final night in Seville, a Jewish woman, played by Suzanne Ahmet, lights the lamps. She is being forced to leave Spain and set sail for an uncertain future. Her story echoes down the ages to the personal stories of people of all faiths affected by politics and war today. She tunes into the voices of a community of Jewish, Christian and Muslim women from across the Spanish peninsula.
