Inspired by ten years of busking on the London underground, Danusia Samal's optimistic gig theatre show gives us a glimpse into the weird world of street music.

Dates and Times: Tue 09 - Sat 20 Oct, 20:00.

Busking wasn’t Danusia’s first choice of job as a teenager, but a decade of singing to strangers has taught her to see the city anew. She takes us on an autobiographical journey through the London Underground, blending theatre, spoken word, original music and soul covers, with influences including Nina Simone, Sam Cook and Amy Winehouse.

An optimistic show about how, amidst the loneliness of the city, music might help us make change come.
