At Hull Truck Theatre we often tell the stories of our city. With so many local legends, there are plenty to pick from:
▶ Amy Johnson being the first woman to fly solo from London to Australia
▶ Jean Bishop, Hull’s Bee Lady
▶ Lillian Bilocca and the Headscarf Revolutionaries
▶ Bob Carver’s famous patties
▶ Dean Windass and that golden goal
▶ Battling Barbara Buttrick’s fighting spirit
▶ William Wilberforce’s force for change
But for every story we tell, hundreds are untold. This zine is full of these untold stories; our unsung heroes. Inspired by the likes of Amy Johnson, we wanted to celebrate the triumphs and accomplishments of the people of Hull. In these pages you will find our painted Placards of Positivity alongside Story Submissions from local communities.
We hope you are as inspired by our communities as we are.
