HMS Blair The Musical...coming soon.A biting political satire ripping into the Blair Years...Written, produced and directed on Merseyside!The script began being written back in June, and the music also. We've messed around with genre, big style - so there's something in there for eveyone who appreciates big gorgeous tunes!HMS Blair will be performed next year in Liverpool as part of the Captial of Culture/ Wirral 2008 celebrations.Work is in progress to transform the musical into a podcast, available online.
