Liverpool merchants debate the problem of the Irish, and activists share their
struggle for better living conditions for those escaping the famine that
destroyed thousands of lives.

Liverpool life and culture and how those legacies live on today.
Judy McLean, Creative Director of Lovehistory, said:- "We are thrilled to
be presenting this exploration of Liverpool's Irish history at the Concert Room.
There is such a strong Irish presence in Liverpool and this is a really poignant
piece that shows the trials and struggle that they faced. It will be a wonderful
