All The Angels by Nick Drake

I am really excited to be performing in All the Angels at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. All the Angels is a play written by Nick Drake and directed by Jonathan Munby based around the first performance of the Messiah. 

'An irresistible story... over the last few years the Globe has pioneered a new sort of musical play, and this may well be the most interesting one yet' BBC Music Magazine

Synopsis

In a Chester pub, a ragtag group of singers is the unlikely first company to perform Handel’s Messiah to a crowd of unappreciative drinkers. So begins the journey of the world’s most popular choral work – a journey full of seemingly insurmountable challenges facing the composer at every turn.

Along the way he encounters the actress Susannah Cibber, the tricky librettist Charles Jennens and the mysterious Crazy Crow in his determined efforts to stage the concert that will change the way the world listens to music forever. 

Background

Nick Drake’s divine play about the complicated, comedic business of putting on a show returns to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse after a sell-out run in 2015.
