When New Yorker Sarah (Carrie Hope Fletcher) moves into a new apartment with her girlfriend, she receives a mysterious box from her late, estranged Aunt. Inside, audio tapes reveal the heart-wrenching stories and powerful songs of her ancestors. Thrown back into the lives of these extraordinary women, Sarah finds herself on a journey that will force her to confront her past and transform her future.

Starring multi award-winner Carrie Hope Fletcher (Heathers, Waitress, Les Misérables), BALLAD LINES weaves Scottish, Irish and Appalachian ballads with a bold contemporary score by award-winning songwriter Finn Anderson (Islander), directed by Tania Azevedo (But I'm a Cheerleader).

With ‘heartbreaking, full-throated folk music for the ages’ (The Guardian), BALLAD LINES is a life-affirming musical for anyone who has ever questioned where they come from - and what they choose to pass on.
