Busking
in the London underground is illegal, not only that but busker's
have there own pitches.
During this show we meet not only Scarlet Rhodes (Emma
Williams) the busker
but all the people she meets in her daily life, as well as some
from her past.
Emma has a beautiful voice and her performance is a joy to
watch.
I
had previously seen Paul Tonkinson, who plays all the other
characters, doing stand-up and that was enjoyable, in this he
displays just how versatile he is.
He played the audience making us all feel part of the
action.
Although
Emma plays her own instruments they have a musician for the
incidental music and additional depth.
The musician Joe Evans, who composed all
the music for the show is the real life LBC Radio Busker of the
Year.
With
a little development this show could make either a longer musical
or a TV special. One which I would enjoy watching.
