Recently our company was enlisted to build a website for an upcoming charity event called Cargo: The Fight For Freedom Past and Present. Cargo is a musical by veteran songerwriter and producer Paul Field. First presented in 2007, Cargo was written to celebrate the bicentennial of the abolition of the British slave trade and to raise awareness about the continuing and widespread problem of human trafficking today. This presentation combines music, dance, images, and the spoken word to tell the story of human enslavement and the struggle for freedom in a unique and moving way.

Since it’s debut, Cargo has been performed as the centerpiece of anti-slavery and human rights events across the UK and the US, and this spring Cargo is coming to the Upstate. We are in the process of building a website to promote these local performances, and we’ll let you know when the full site launches. For now, you can visit the temporary site for event times, locations, and registration. The full website will give complete event details and more information on how you can get involved in the fight against human trafficking.
