MPX5126872: Street theatre came to Leamington in the shape of 10 amateur actors from Oxfam. The players are members of the Young Oxfam Round Britain Street Theatre who are spending their summer vacation touring a dozen towns and cities. They present two plays to show Oxfam's role in the Third World, the first depicts the results of drought and the second the effect of international trade on under-developed countries. The travelling group are accommodated at church halls while on tour and Leamington was about the half-way point of their tour. Their leader, John Fewtrell, said the group were set up to entertain and inform but had raised enough through contributions to cover their costs. 22nd August 1977 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
