THERE ARE WHISPERINGS AND MURMERINGS …

… that some news is imminent about my new show – the second one I have written with Phil Bowen.

Oh, the inevitably slow time-table of news bulletin opportunities.  Months to write a piece, and then weeks of discussions and planning with publishers, agents, performers, administrators and others.  I am now waiting for the moment when more details may be made public about this new musical.

I first mentioned the show here in a Blog in December, and my diary shows that the initial meeting to talk over the idea with Phil was a few weeks earlier, on Monday 28 September.  (I had been working on the idea for a while before that, though.)  We wrote between October and January, and revised in March.  Current thinking is for an opening in October.  A year.

So, I suppose, that things are not really moving that slowly.

And here is a reminder of our first show – this one written for primary schoolchildren – now available as a Songbook with linking text.
