Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia

A festival first! We welcomed the stellar Journey To Cassiopeia to bluedot 2017. Taking inspiration from analogue synth pioneers Daphne Oram and Delia Derbyshire, Hannah Peel (The Magnetic North), backed by a full brass band, tells the story of Mary Casio - now 86 years old - and her lifelong stargazing dream to leave her South Yorkshire home in the mining town of Barnsley.
