In this play Professor Anindita Ghosh, who researches the role of music in the lives of migrants, has teamed up with a leading community based theatre group, Ayna Arts, to produce an original play on Bengali folk music and migration. Telegram is based on both research and real life experiences of Bangladeshi migrants who came to work in the mills and factories in north-West England from the 1960s onwards. The life-stories on offer here will resonate with migrants irrespective of background or location and highlight the role played by cultural traditions in sustaining migrant lives despite displacement and hardship.
