From the crumbling walls and recesses of an old London theatre, the ghosts of yesteryear share their lives, their loves and the lilting melodies of a bygone Victorian era.
Featuring thirty songs from the London music hall tradition, LONDON CRIES draws upon first-hand accounts of the powerless poor who hacked a difficult living from the streets of the metropolis.
LONDON CRIES speaks to us in words and music of the suffering but also the joys of London life as it was really lived.
Written by Di Trevis and Frank McGuinness with music by Dominic Muldowney
Starring the Irondale Ensemble, and the Olivier Award-Winning actress Jenny Galloway, and Richard Poe (Cry Baby, The Pajama Game, M. Butterfly, Moon Over Buffalo, 1776).
Following this world premiere, London Cries will be performed at the Old Vic with an all-star British cast.
Please arrive 15 minutes prior to curtain time as late-comers may not be seated until intermission
