By George!

Synopsis:
actor, singer and pianist Michael Lunts casts a witty eye on the subject of Englishness in this intimate revue of comedy songs. alongside contributions from such arch-observers of the national character as Coward, Betjeman, Flanders & Swann and Gilbert & Sullivan, Michael offers some original comic songs of his own in this affectionate and often hilarious foray through the quirks of a people who do not always take themselves as seriously as those stiff upper lips might suggest.

Coward At Sea

Synopsis:
Come aboard the SS Madeira for this nautical musical comedy featuring, for the first time on stage, Noel Coward's 'P&O 1930', his magical evocation of the historic P&O route home to Britain from the Far East, when a voyage took weeks rather than hours and the passengers got up to all sorts of antics en route. actor, pianist and singer Michael Lunts brings to life this wonderfully eccentric cast of Coward characters and includes many of 'The Master's' best-loved songs, from 'matelot' to 'mad Dogs and Englishmen', from 'Nina' to 'marvellous Party' and, of course, 'Sail away'!

Last Ballade, The

Synopsis:
This 'musical drama' explores the extraordinary story of the end of Chopin's stormy relationship with his lover George Sand. The unfolding drama set against a background of some of the composer's most profound and original music, the Ballades for instance, played live, which become a musical echo of the real life 'ballade' of Chopin's final years.

Integrated into the action are live performances of some of Rachmaninovs greatest music for piano, including the C Sharp Minor Prelude and the celebrated Second Piano Concerto itself.

Quirkish Delight

Synopsis:
The entertainment is timeless, quintessential musical cabaret, drawing on the very finest comedy songs in the English language, from both sides of the atlantic, from Tom Lehrer to Noel Coward, Cole Porter to Flanders and Swann, with songs both familiar and unfamiliar, including some from Michaels own pen that carry on the tradition of comedy song revue, a tradition that is surely, in these straitened times, ripe for revival!
