Tales of Love and Magic in London
City Stories is a new type of Cabaret Drama, a sequence of interwoven love stories and a love letter to London. City Stories returns with new stories and new original music.
Alongside our existing repertoire the City Stories company will be presenting 2 new magical stories set in London:
Pearl stars Phoebe Sparrow and Martin Turner.
What happens if one day in the National Gallery you think you’ve seen the reincarnation of your lost love?
Occupy stars Scott Handy and Yolanda Vazquez.
Beneath St Paul’s Cathedral is a special, secret order of the Church. What happens if their work is discovered?
Written and directed by award winning playwright James Phillips (The Rubenstein Kiss, Hidden in the Sand) and with original music composed by singer-songwriter Rosabella Gregory (winner of New York Songwriter’s Circle Song Contest), City Stories is a magical journey through a magical city.
These are the first dates in a year long expanding residency for the City Stories Company, with new stories and new music added to the existing repertoire.
The company include: Alexander Hanson, Gary Kemp, Will Keen, Sally Dexter, Julian Ovenden, Sarah Quintrell, Louisa Clein, Daphne Alexander, Phoebe Sparrow, Tom Gordon Gill, Yolanda Vazquez, Martin Turner, Scott Handy, Karina Fernandez, Uriel Adiv and Peter Bradley.
“Rosabella Gregory’s lyrics seem almost to give London itself a voice.. Raw, informal and quietly profound.. This surprising evening of London stories for our times, linked through musical interludes, addresses the big questions of life.” One Stop Arts
