Avalon The Old Legend, A New Musical
Music & Lyrics by Callum Shannon.
Avalon follows the classic tale of the tragic destiny of soon-to-be King Arthur and his half-sister Morgan, through the lens of our wizardly charismatic narrator, Merlin.
Becoming Nancy
Book by Elliot Davis. Music by George Stiles. Lyrics by Anthony Drewe.
Additional Music & Lyrics by Elliot Davis, Terry Ronald & George Stiles.
Based on the novel by Terry Ronald.
It's 1979 and David Starr is unquestionably one of the smartest, most talented sixth-formers in East Dulwich – to his surprise, he’s been given the female lead in the school play which sends shockwaves through David’s small town.
FANGIRLS
Book, Music and Lyrics by Yve Blake.
Meet Edna: she’s 14, she’s a misfit, and she’s in love with Harry. There’s just one problem: Harry’s in the world’s biggest boy band and doesn’t know she exists. Exactly how far is she prepared to go in the name of love?
Feral Monster
Written by Bethan Marlow. Composed by Nicola T. Chang.
Commissioned and produced by National Theatre Wales.
A banging new musical about an unremarkable teenager. With a soundtrack mashing up grime, R&B, soul, pop and rap, the show follows Jax and her noisy, opinionated brain as they navigate love, identity, class and family.
Pied Piper
Conceived by Conrad Murray (Writer) & Lara Taylor
A brand new hip-hop musical. It’s the eve of the mayoral election, and the kids of Hamelin aren’t happy. The authorities have imposed a music ban, and there’s a serious rat problem. But can the mysterious rat catcher in town help?
REDCLIFFE
Written by Jordan Luke Gage.
Based on the true events of William Critchard and Richard Arnold in 1753, Redcliffe is an epic tale of forbidden love in spite of the persecution people faced for hundreds of years.
The Night our Parents Disappeared
Book & lyrics by Andy Room. Composed by Oli Rew.
Jaz’ parents have vanished. Now, with the help of teenage inventor Melanie, she must work out where they’ve gone and how to get them back. And what’s going on with those ninja teddy bears.
We’ll Have Nun of It
Book by Rosie Dart. Music, Lyrics and Book by Finola Southgate.
It’s 1967 – against this new era, four friends navigate life at St Anne’s Convent School. But as opinions collide and feelings towards one another shift, the group’s final year doesn’t play out as planned.
Why the Whales Came
Books & Lyrics by Nikki Racklin. Composed by Bella Barlow.
Based on the novel by Michael Morpurgo.
In the shadow of WW1, the insular residents of Bryher are terrified of the solitary ‘Birdman’. It takes the innocence of youth, to blow apart the fear and superstition that threaten to destroy the community, lifting a long-standing curse in the process.
