I don’t remember the last time I saw a musical in such an intimate setting as the Etcetera Theatre in Camden Town. I think theatregoers are so used to seeing musicals on a big stage with over the top sets, lighting and costumes that it can distract us from the story being told or even the characters telling us the story.
This was not the case at the musical , Roll on The Day , written and composed by Laurence Mark Wythe and Roberto Trippini for A Stage Kindly , a musical initiative which sets out to support new musical theatre and modern opera.
Melodic and tense piano music opens the show inviting the audience to enter the worlds of two of our main characters: Eko, a Nigerian illegal immigrant who is selling his works of art and Dan , a cockney street vendor peddling cheesy souvenirs to tourists at Green Park station right near Buckingham palace.
