POSTER FOR THE LOST HARP
1994
The Lost Harp was a large-scale community play staged in Rhayader, Wales, addressing issues such as the spread of social unrest. A firm believer in ‘giving a voice to the voiceless’, Peter Cox has also written plays about the 1984 miners’ strike and hunger strikes. In 2010 he was awarded an MBE in recognition of his service to community arts.
