DESCRIPTION:
Here’s a little taster, taken from a couple of live performances we did a few years ago in Birmingham, Hamburg and Koblenz.
“If Music be the Food of Love”; is a unique project, bringing together the two art forms of theatre and music. It marries scenes from plays, poems and sonnets by William Shakespeare with Elizabethan music and song, predominantly from Shakespeare’s contemporary, John Dowland. The performance is conceived as a “play”, and divided into “acts” dealing with themes of love, music, melancholy, war and death.
