Melody

T149465206
Award-winning performance poet Jemima Foxtrot fuses spoken word and song to explore how music attaches itself to memories, people and places. Combining spoken word and fragments of song, from funk and soul to folk music, Jemima tells a funny, poignant story of childhood, displacement, growing up, love, migration, heartbreak and joy.
