The Forgotten Chorus from the recent successful performance at Macomb Community College will be singing songs from the show at the opening session of the Labor Notes Conference at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dearborn, MI Friday, April 23, at 7:30 p.m.

DESCRIPTION:

Set in the 1930s, Forgotten tells the story of Lewis Bradford, a minister and radio host with a vision of "labor peace" who goes to work at the yet-to-be organized Ford Motor Company. Author/composer Steve Jones uncovers the mystery surrounding Bradford's death through a sequence of jazz-based songs and the narrative of Bradford's widow, Ella. Dedicated to the thousands of workers who overcame racial divisions, red-baiting, and company thugs to build a union, Forgotten bursts onto the stage in a passionate display of musical virtuosity and good old-fashioned storytelling.
