The
Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama introduce 3hree one act
musicals. Performed by students from the Masters of Performance in
Musical Theatre course.
This
is the European premiere of 3hree, which was commissioned by The
Prince Music Theatre Philadelphia and premiered in October 2000.
Consisting of 'The Mice', 'Lavender Girl' and 'The Flight
of the Lawnchair Man'.
The
Mice set around the life and loves of a rodent exterminator and
how he escapes his wife and finds eternal love.
Lavender
Girl is the reworking of a classic urban myth, where truelove can
cross the barriers of time, life and death.
The
Flight of the Lawnchair Man is inspired by the 1997 nominee of the
Darwin Award (in honour of those who accidentally kill themselves
in really stupid ways) Larry Walters, who survived a trip of
16,000 feet up above the earth on his lawnchair.
The
cast of ten each appear in two or more of the musicals and all
have excellent voices, one or two of them appeared familiar but as
many of them have performed before it is possible they may have
been in something I have seen.
A
selection of rather different musicals performed by potential
stars of the future.
