BELFAST
Winner: MUSICAL THEATRE REVIEW
CLARE AWARD: EDINBURGH FRINGE 2021: BEST MUSICAL
“Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.”
Belfast, one town, two God fearing communities under the watchful eye of an Almighty whose wrath and retribution are known to be terrible and then from behind the assembled dignitaries there to launch the greatest vessel ever to sail the oceans, some common working man, looking up at her and overwhelmed with pride and believing it with all his heart cried: “Even God couldn’t sink the Titanic”.
From Titanic to the beginning of The Troubles, the story of BELFAST, Northern Ireland, city on the side of the Lagan, sectarianism and a world gone mad.
A visceral tragedy told through the lens of EPIC THEATRE with ten new songs.
