Cato Street

Cato Street

Robert Shaw1972
A dramatisation of hte events leading up to the ill-fated Cato Street conspiracy of 1820. This was an attempt by certain working-class men and women to murder the entire British cabinet. Frustrated in their demands for parliamentary reform by savagely repressive laws rigidly enforced, ordinary people turned to violence as a means of making their protest public.
