Last Thursday on September 15th members of the press were invited to the launch for what promises to be an exciting, new contemporary musical drama following the story of a modern couple in London as they face all the ups and downs of life.
We got to hear a selection of songs from the show and although the cast have only been rehearsing for a short time they were incredibly polished. The songs are catchy and contemporary and I can definitely see them becoming staples on musical theatre fans playlists. Hey Prince Charming was a personal favourite- its been in my head since Thursday so its definitely catchy!
Set against an instantly recognisable backdrop
of eye-watering house prices, unreliable dating apps and over-friendly coffee
baristas, This Little Life of Mine looks at what happens when we can’t
have everything that we want.
This Little Life of
Mine is
produced by Stage Traffic Productions a newly formed
theatre company set up by Michael Yale (Book and Director) and Eilene Davidson
(Producer) focussed on what live
performance does well- engaging and enthralling audiences.
The cast is comprised of only four extremely talented people: Greg Barnett, Kate Batter, Caroline Deverill and James Robinson who between them have incredible credits and are sure to be sublime in this show.
The show is choreographed by Tracy Allsop, with set and costume design by Zahra Mansouri and video artisty by Jack Henry. The music is written by Charlie Round-Turner and musical direction is by Thomas Dunchan.
This is certainly one of my most anticipated shows and I can't wait to see how the storyline plays out. This promises to be an honest, quirky, current musical, relatable for anyone who is trying to navigate the crazy world we're living in!
This Little Life of Mine will run at the Park Theatre from October 4th to October 29th.
