Wild Geese (2005)
This album was conceived to celebrate the launch of Banner Theatre's 1st of May Band and to mark the company's 30th Anniversary celebrations in 2005.

The CD, which features songs from both Migrant Voices and Wild Geese productions, encapsulates the bitter experiences of migrants the world over leaving their native lands and loved ones in search of work, refuge and survival. The songs are based on extensive interviews with migrants and refugees and their families, and is a tribute to their courage and resourcefulness in the face of hardship and oppression.

About The 1st of May band
Banner Theatre's 1st of May Band builds on the company's 35-year tradition of working with the trade union movement, from the NUM to the NUJ and from UCATT to UNISON.

We are the only theatre company in Britain with a dynamic cultural commitment to the trade union movement and offer fast-moving, hard-edged, relevant entertainment for rallies, socials, conferences and educational schools.

The band's wide repertoire is drawn from Banner's previous productions and can be customized to fit different kinds of event for different campaigns and different issues.
