The tale of John Ball and the Great Revolt , with live-looped 14th century music

Live-looped music from the 14th century provides the backdrop to the tale of the Great Revolt and radical preacher John Ball. Born near Colchester, Ball preached in English and claimed that everyone was created equal.

The future hung in the balance...
