10 March, 7.30pm - St Peter�s Methodist Church, Canterbury Directed by Richard Stilgoe
(lyricist for Starlight Express, Cats and Phantom of the Opera) -
the students of the Orpheus Centre and Dorton House School (RLIB)
present �Songs & Sons�.
Just as novelists are influenced by novels and painters by
paintings, every song is the �child� of another song.
In a series of workshops on some of the best songs ever
written, these remarkable disabled students have studied these songs
and written their �children�. The final concert is made up of
the great songs, and their �sons and daughters�.
