A couple of cast members have pointed out that the song 'Missing' from Elysium rings very true in the current climate and how we feel about social distancing.
3. Missing Elysium is a New Musical currently in development. Set on a deserted island, a group of strangers fighting for survival find themselves facing a moral dilemma, 'Should we kill and eat a human being
4 years ago today I had the pleasure of working with the most talented, dedicated and collaborative group of people to create the most beautifully bizarre musical about survival, extremes moral dilemmas and the human psyche. It is a score I am very proud of and a process of creation I shall never forget. Tim and I are looking forward to revisiting this piece at some point in the future.
If you'd like to have a listen to the concept album then please follow the link below. It is just short of 40 minutes long.
The story is very hard to follow via the soundtrack, but I told you what was happening, it would give away the biggest twist of the show.
Enjoy

Here is the latest demo of 'On The Throne' from Pandora The Musical sung by the talented Will Arundell (Cover Pirelli/Anthony/Beadle - Sweeney Todd, Frank Russell - Queen of the Mist, Man #2 - The World Goes Round, Cover Jekyll/Hyde - Jekyll & Hyde.)

Dirty Little Secrets
A comedic insight into the lives of five working professionals who let the mask slip over a bottle of wine. During the course of the evening decorum depletes and unwanted truths are accidentally revealed. A world premiere of a new musical. Join us for a night of tears, tantrums and tequila!
Quarantine
5 strangers awake to find themselves in a Quarantine unit. Locked up, dressed the same and terrified - they don't know how they got there. Why are they there? They, theorise, calculate the reasoning behind their captivity. Piece by piece they try to solve their peculiar circumstances. Certain memories return but only in fragments. As the story unfolds, one of the strangers remembers a key moment from their past shining the light on the harrowing truth. Are their worst fears about to be confirmed? Quarantine is a dark tale about the abuse of humans in a not too distant dystopian future. Be careful what you sign.
More information coming soon!

Next up is 'Old and Out' a devised LGBT+ piece being performed at Tramshed 28th Feb - 1st March.
