Julia's Song
Julia?s Song by Sylvia Hall
Often overlooked in John Lennon?s story, labelled as feckless by some, Julia Lennon was the inspiration for John?s life and music.
When John reunited with his mother,he breathed in her magic. Julia sparkled. Her lustrous auburn hair fell over the banjo as she played and sang Maggie Mae. She lit up the room jiving to early Elvis records; encouraged John?s passion for music, taught him banjo chords and bought him his first guitar. Fearless, reckless, Julia loved freely, cherished her children.
A woman out of her time. In the 1930s Julia scandalised her sisters by wearing trousers, living with a man out of wedlock, clacking down the street in red high heels to work as a barmaid. But who gave John Lennon his music, his anarchic attitude? The fabulous, irrepressible Julia. Her lust for life tragically cut short, too soon.
This is the premiere of a play that celebrates the life of Julia and looks at the people surrounding the Liverpool lad who became a legend.
