Chris Goode
How Can I Keep From Singing?
14 August 9.15pm
Drill Hall
“I try to write the most embarrassing thing I can think of.” – John Wieners
Some years ago, Chris Goode made a promise to himself: that in the summer after the death of his hero, folk-singer and activist Pete Seeger, he’d do a show in Edinburgh by way of tribute to Seeger’s pioneering example. A show about theatre and activism, and about what it means to stand up in the company of others. Above all, a show with songs.
Pete Seeger died in January, at the age of 94.
Chris can’t really sing.
Come and spend a tantalizingly unrehearsed one-night-only hour with “one of the geniuses of British theatre” (Guardian), while he thinks out loud about what it means to have – or not have – a voice.
