Crouch End Chronicles
Event Information
Description
We will be saying farewell to Hornsey Town Hall (which is about to be redeveloped), with a celebration of all things Crouch End.
'Crouch End Chronicles', mixing readings, live music and raucous anecdotes, digs into local history and the characters who have helped make it: from Edward VII to Matt Monro, Joan Rhodes (Crouch End’s Strongest Woman), Bob Dylan, Bridget Hitler and the Suffragettes. And the current writers who make it a cultural epicentre.
As an added bonus, Blacktooth Productions will be celebrating its 13th anniversary, with highlights from some of its past performances. Subjects range from Great Eccentrics and the Summer of Love to Bohemian Soho, Seaside Capers and Animal Magic.
