Before each showcase, there will be a ‘curtain-raiser’ from creatives from the Hippodrome’s Musical Theatre Writers Group development programme. Three of the below short performances will start the showcase each night:

This Is My Name, by Dominique La Victoria and Melisa Camba, takes audiences back to the 1869 Spanish colonial Philippines. Historical figure Señora Maria del Rosario Gil y Montes de Sanchiz, a poet, mistress to the governor-general, and activist, dares to attend a ball wearing ribbons in her hair saying VIVA LA LIBERTAD! (Long Live Liberty!)

Reality Bites – The Interactive Musical, by David Payne, Aron Sood and Nyasha Gudo, is a darkly comic, satirical romp through reality TV with nods to Big Brother, Love Island, The Only Way Is Essex, Made In Chelsea, Married At First Sight, The Traitors, and Love Is Blind. It asks how far the contestants in smash hit reality show Purgatory will go in the pursuit of notoriety.

Reveries, by composer Matthew Harvey and writer Ryan Carter, centres around a small group of friends who return to their hometown to dig up a time capsule they buried as children following the death of their friend. Their late friend George has left a video message in the capsule along with a small fortune. He challenges them to answer the question ‘are you really happy?’ and, if not, to change their lives for the better.

Pit Stop and Wash is a character-driven story by a Birmingham-based team including writer Gaby Songui, composer Tyriq Baker, and lyricist Kristal Malin. Following the growth of five people and a magical washing machine, it explores life and love with humour and wit. The music is lyrical, with various cultural influences, and lots of soundscapes utilising the laundromat.

The First All-Ladies Cambridge Fire Brigade is an upbeat ensemble piece by composer Jenni Pinnock, writer Brian Mackenwells and lyricist Helen Arney. It follows the world of Hertha Marks-Ayrton and four of her contemporaries at 1870s Girton College, Cambridge who form the first ever all-female fire brigade.

Untitled (A Very Serious Unserious Black Hair Court Room Drama The Musical) is being developed by writer Lakesha Arie-Angelo and composer Nathan Lawrence (aka NeONE The Wonderer). The show is an all-Black satirical court room ‘drama’ musical about texturism within the Black hair industry and capitalism set to original 90’s Pop, R’n’B and Hip-hop.
