Two women behind an immersive walking tour have said they want to promote the powerful stories of Ukraine’s artists ahead of the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest.
Ukrainian producer and cultural activist Veronika Skilarova, 55 and British director and writer Zoe Lafferty, 36, are the brains behind With Fire And Rage, a Liverpool walking tour. Those taking part can scan QR codes located at various points in the city centre and listen to real stories from artists on the frontline in Ukraine.
Tales range from music concerts held during air raids to rescuing artwork out of war-torn cities. The tour begins at the Everyman Theatre, heads down Bold Street and through the Cultural Quarter before finishing at Liverpool Parish Church opposite the Liver Building.
