The Mill Ballads

The Mill Ballads is a music theatre production which blurs the borders between folk music, drama and social history.

Folk group Trebuchet; Keith Carter Harris, Mark Seyler, Steve Mansfield, combine with actor Stephen Howe to bring to life this important part of our history.

The year is 1845 and Joseph Sefton recalls the experiences of his life. While recounting his stories, his thoughts and memories come to life in songs.

The Mill Ballads is based on real historical characters and events, which took place in and around Quarry Bank Mill in Cheshire, during the industrial revolution.
