Back in the summer I was busy putting together a film about the music hall stars buried in Abney Park Cemetery. It was made as a fund-raiser for Abney Park Trust. Like so many other small charities, the Trust has been hit by the pandemic which forced a stop to their normal fund-raising activities. So instead of all the walks and talks, plays, concerts and community fairs, they have been creating a wealth of material on-line.
The film was presented on-line at the end of September, and is now available to watch via this link. It was enthusiastically received by local people, not-so-local people and music hall aficionados. Nellie Power gets a big mention (that’s her in the picture).
