Mychelle starring in Here I'll Stay: Kurt Weil in America

"This unusual and riveting piece of theatre, written and directed by Peter Scott-Presland is a labour of love.
As such the plot elaborates on composer Kurt Weill's time in America, with many enjoyable excursions into the musical world(s) he created whilst there.

The acting is consistently impressive, with a cast who share in common sensitivity of expression and lungs of iron. Despite having few characters per se (other than Kurt himself played by Gary Hughes) they manage the difficult task of engaging the audience in the emotional landscapes created by the music, and in some ways each song is a miniature play in itself.

With showstoppers like I don't Give A Damn and Mr Right (both performed by Mychelle Colleary) giving some idea of the breadth of Weill's talent--director and writer Scott-Presland talks of his virtuosity, "Wherever he went after he left Germany, he fitted in, musically."

An enjoyable introduction to Weill's work for those who have yet to hear it, with excellent choreography by Cecilia Darker and exceptionally strong acting by the cast: Titus Rowe, Johannah Jolson, Hughes and Mychelle Colleary." - Sara-Mae Tuson, UK Theatre)
