​

Belfast Ensemble premiere a heart breaking new musical theatre love story, live in concert at the Lyric.

​

West End star Christina Bennington (Bat Out Of Hell, Heathers) joins this internationally acclaimed Ensemble (Abomination, Propaganda) for one spectacular night, performing Ivor Novello nominated composer Conor Mitchell’s ravishing new musical.

​

Based on the classic French love story, and with live orchestra, this heart wrenching score receives its Irish premiere on the Lyric stage and promises to be an unforgettable night in the city.

​

"Conor Mitchell continues to prove to be one of the most vital and uncategorisable of contemporary composers in Northern Ireland" (Opera Journal)
