References war orphans talking about experiences of grief, displacement, racism, and searching for lost families.
As children they were evacuated from a war zone. Fifty years on, Barton and Andy are still trying to find out who they are.
Precious Cargo is a powerful, timely new show about the life-long impact of the Vietnam war, by Australian writer-performer Barton Williams (Huynh van Cuong) and Hebridean composer Andy Yearley (Nguyen Tang). Drawing on interviews with Operation Babylift adoptees from across the world, it is a story about the chaos of conflict, childhood trauma, racism and a generation running out of time to find lost families.
Directed by Fringe First winner Laura Cameron-Lewis.
