CHARITY SHOWCASE OF NEW MUSICAL THEATRE WRITING
The celebration and promotion of work by new musical theatre writers has always been close to Stephen Sondheim’s heart, so we thought you would like to know about a forthcoming charity concert which is being produced by our very own Vice-Chairman, Peter Auker (who will also musically direct the show jointly with A Stage Kindly’s Katy Lipson).
The show is being held at the home of The Stephen Sondheim Society Presents – The Pheasantry, King’s Road, on July 1st, and is called Snappy Title 4: The Secret of Happiness, and is presented in association with A Stage Kindly.
The artists performing will be:
Lorna Want, Tim Driesen, Rachael Louise Miller, Martin Neely, Gemma O’Duffy, Kimberley Blake, Mark Goldthorp, Kenneth Avery-Clark, Antony Lawrence, Kendra McMillan, Ben Vivian Jones, Mark Dugdale and Charlotte Bradford.
Composers and writers whose work will be featured are:
Paul Gordon, John Caird, Joe Sterling, Daniel Loveday, Charles Bloom, Christopher Orton, Bob Gould, Paula Rosen, Pippa Cleary, Jake Brunger, Alexander Bermange, Danny Davies, Finn Anderson, Nadav Weisel, Mike Hume, Noel Katz, Mark Allcorn, William Squier, Laurence Mark Wythe, Mark Goldthorp and Kenneth Avery-Clark
It will be a veritable feast of fantastic songs and performances, and of course they are hoping to raise as much money as we possibly can for The Myasthenia Gravis Association (www.mga-charity.org). So don’t miss out! Book your ticket today at www.pizzaexpresslive.co.uk or phone 0845 6027 017.
