Us against whatever - Maureen Lennon

Anna is starting to think she made a mistake in moving to Hull. Steph sees her city changing and misses her dad. Both are looking for somewhere to call home and something to believe in.And Sheila? She's determined to bring people together again, the only way she knows how - karaoke! 'Cause what we need right now is to get up on our feet, grab a mic together and belt out a ballad after a pint or five.From Pride in Poland and Windass at Wembley, to City of Culture and Brexit Britain, Us Against Whatever is an electrifying cabaret about the places we keep in our hearts, with support from Hull's finest voices - you!
