Read Joe's review of Every Good Boy Deserves Favour

A unique piece of musical theatre written for actors and orchestra by a creative dream team of Tom Stoppard and André Previn.

The piece follows two inmates in an asylum: one, a political dissident who must admit that his old ideas were wrong and he is now cured, before he can be released. Another, a genuine loony who is surrounded at all times by an orchestra.

A ground-breaking piece combining a clever exploration of truth, liberty and sanity with a thrilling aural sound-scape.
