“An elegant, vital insight into human suffering and survival” Cerys Matthews
“If you get a chance to see Matthew Crampton’s story-and-song ‘Human Cargo’ show, do not miss it.” Songlines
Watch my recent short film on Harwich and the Mayflower, and my Armchair Human Cargo show for the Harwich Festival on facebook live.
My show Human Cargo blends storytelling with folk concert to ask – does humanity actually evolve? Charting cruelties past and present, it delves deep into journey, migration and life. Performances include local stories from the Parallel Lives project and, where possible, partnership with local refugee or migrant support groups.
