Set on the Carmel Line in Cavan Township in 1937 and featuring two central characters from Doctor Barnardo’s Children, Carmel follows the tribulations of a local family during the Great Depression and their desperate struggle to hold into the family farm. This bittersweet work also explores Peterbor-ough labour history, and features original music inspired by country and western and folk traditionals of the 1930s.
