1940s Singalong Event for Silver Wings

Join me for a fun 1940s Singalong a the Forum Norwich!

Following my VE Day performance at the Millennium Library in May, I’m looking forward to running a fun 1940s Singalong and social event for the American Library – Memorial to the 2nd Air Division, USAAF on Friday 19th September as part of Silver Wings – The US Army Air Forces in WWII Norfolk Exhibition.

The free, ten day event will be exploring Norfolk’s rich wartime history and is presented as part of Norfolk Heritage Open Days and celebrates the end of the Second World War.

There will also be talks, art and craft events, historic walks, a street party, exhibition and much more. Further details on the American Library website.

Booking is essential for the singalong and you can get tickets and further details here
