Concept



Our presentation, unlike most musicals, has no script. Instead, we have created a musical tapestry by weaving together some of the most popular love songs that appeared during the period 1900 to 1980. Hence the title, “Love Is A Many-Splendoured Thing!”

Interspersed with these songs will be 13 dance forms that caught the fancy of the public, some fleetingly, others more abidingly. Our tapestry comprises 23 segments variously categorized as “chronological”, “thematic” or “legendary”, each segment containing a medley of 5 or 6 songs tied together by a common ‘thread’. 

The train logo depicts our intention to take the audience on a tapestry-unfolding ride down memory lane. All music will be live, re-created and improvised from the originals by a ten-piece ensemble.
