Details

In sixteen heart-stopping songs, Songs for a New World explores the excitement and danger that we feel when we are on the brink of something new and unknown - whether it be founding a new civilisation or the thrill of starting out in a new relationship. As the show develops, each character goes on a voyage of self discovery as they journey towards their particular 'new world'. Each song captures a life-changing moment and spins a musical story in a language that is both tuneful and emotionally sophisticated.
