Film @ Fram presents: Ghosts (PG)
This fact based film (2006) by Director Nick Broomfield re-enacts the events leading up to the Morecombe Bay tragedy of 2004. A cast of non professionals (often playing themselves) with hand held cameras, natural light and true life locations follows the plight of Ai Qui Lin, a mother and illegal immigrant and 23 other Chinese cockle pickers and their appalling conditions of virtual slavery. A losing battle for survival.

Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain - event sold out!
The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is warm, entertaining, thought-provoking and funny. You may never think about music in the same way once you've been exposed to the Ukes' depraved musicology. From Charlie Parker to the Sex Pistols through Johann Sebastian Bach, the Orchestra take you on a world tour with only hand luggage....

"I watched, stunned, as this most diminutive of four-string guitars morphed from undergrown wallflower to belle of the ball… : I think I love the ukulele." Andrew Dickson, Guardian Unlimited.

"The best musical entertainment in the country." The Independent.


Tickets £16 | Booking essential
Event sponsored by: Framlingham College, LJC Builders & Framlingham Technology Centre
