Synopsis Perfect Pitch are presenting six of the most promising new musicals being offered by the next generation of British writers. At each performance you will see two of the shows as 45 minute presentations, performed by West End stars but without the glitz and the glamour. See these shows in their simplest form, before everyone else - and at a fraction of the cost. The selected shows are: Can You Keep a Secret? by Matthew Brind and Lesley Ross; The Diary of Me by Simon James Green and Stuart Matthew Price; Lift by Craig Adams and Ian Watson; The Lost Christmas by Laurence Mark Wythe; Rebels and Retail by Cush Jumbo and James McConville; and Through the Door by Laurence Mark Wythe and Judy Freed. Each musical will be presented as a 45-minute extract from its full piece and each will be performed three times during the week. Studio 2
Perfect Pitch is a very laudable project but doesn't appear to have produced many shows that have received a commercial production. The show I saw, Can You Keep a Secret, seemed quite interesting as a 45 minute workshop, which I had hoped it would be given the involvement of Matthew Brind as composer and Sally Ann Triplett in the cast. This format didn't allow the full version which appeared to include some Harry Potter / Snow Queen nonsense so perhaps that was a blessing. The second workshop was apparently based around space robots so I made my excuses and left. - David Baxter
