Production details

Chicken Shed's new musical version comes complete with a singing bear, a dancing corpse, a shipwreck, a frozen woman, a torture chamber, and the entire House of Lords behaving like football hooligans at the last Night of the Proms...but The Laughing Man is also a love story, with 20 new songs by Jo Collins and a book and lyrics by Chris Bond whose Sweeney Todd was made into a musical by Stephen Sondheim.
