Avondale - a true story told in song and narration

Work:: Avondale (S01458363401)

Avondale is such a story. Beyond a casual mention on a local history site, the full extended story of Kate Fitzpatrick, a mysterious inmate of Ormskirk Workhouse, has never seen the light of day on any stage or any page - that in itself is remarkable, never mind the events of the story themselves! The story involves the last tragic voyage of The Lusitania, a dramatic search for a lost relative and much more besides. As soon as I came across this story, I knew I had to write it up. Yes it's a local story but its themes, like any great story, are universal. Set in both the UK (Ormskirk) and the USA (Illinois and New York), it's a story that connects two continents and two women whose paths would normally, under other circumstances, most likely never have crossed.
