Support new British songwriting - Proceeds from sales go directly to Mercury Musical Developments to help fund future projects.
Conceived by Mercury Musical Developments and The Gate Theatre. In early 2011 a workshop revue was presented at The Gate to showcase the songwriting skills of some the best writers in Britain - from the established (including Don Black, Frank Lazarus, Richard Stilgoe) to the rising talent (including Craig Adams, Dougal Irvine, Stuart Matthew Price, Tim Sutton).
Starring David Burt (Fantasticks at the Duchess), Stuart Matthew Price (Parade at the Donmar) and Cath Whitefield (Hedda at the Gate), and featuring beautiful arrangements by Tony winner Sarah Travis (Sweeney Todd on Broadway).
Album produced by Simon Greiff (for SimG Records) and Neil Marcus (at MMD).
“BEYOND THE GATE, a sweet, occasionally deep, compilation of new material … some is gorgeous … staged with simply elegance … Stuart Matthew Price once again proves an invaluable vocal presence & Cath Whitefield is tremendous.”
Mark Shenton, The Stage.
“Truly excellent ... a feast of imagination and pride in new British composition” The Audience Club
