A Class Act with music by Ed Kleban at Landor Theatre

Theatrica Ltd presents A Class Act, with music and lyrics by Ed Kleban, and book by Linda Kline and Lonny Price, at the Landor Theatre, a fringe venue in Clapham, south London, from 20 March to 13 April 2013.

Directed by Robert McWhir, designed by Martin Thomas, lighting by Richard Lambert, choreography by Robbie O'Reilly.

Starring John Barr, Sarah Borges, Erin Cornell, Barry Fantoni, Charles Hagerty, Gary Jordan, Laura McCulloch, Jane Quinn.

A CLASS ACT is an artfully structured memorial musical dramatising Tony Award winning lyricist Edward Kleban's comic , passionate and ultimately heartbreaking journey. Providing a behind-the-scenes glimpse of how a musical is created and the forces behind its creation, A CLASS ACT retraces the high and low points of Kleban's career and explores how an artist's personal life can inspire or interfere with professional pursuits. The show integrates songs from widely different Kleban projects into the narrative, each number establishing a particular moment of insight and creating a study of a lost era in show business.
