Shake the City

T943135717
Shake the City is based on the clothworkers strike in Leeds, 1970. Stand with the extraordinary women of Harehills, through Northern wit, pain & triumphs, to Shake The City!. Lori, Wendy, Margaret and Heather have set up their own makeshift Women's Liberation Movement meetings in the fight for equal pay. What will it take to make a stiff-necked factory listen? Written 50 years on from the forgotten strike, listen to the unheard voices of brilliant Northern women and a heartbeat of stomping Northern Soul floor fillers.
