The Good Hope archiveThe voyage of The Good Hope is a journey on which the life of the entire community depends. A storm rages, the women and children wait ashore, the boat follows the Greenland catch. The story has been relocated to the Yorkshire fishing community of Whitby in 1900. A poetic account of the fisherman's life, The Good Hope hasn't been performed in the UK for more than 50 years and is rediscovered at a time when the fishing industry is again in a time of struggle.
