A one-act play set backstage at an open mic night.Beautifully balanced with humour and music, ‘A Different Song’ is an uplifting story of love, loneliness and what happens when you forget where you belong.
A lonely microphone, an unpredictable crowd and a deranged dog…oh, and a spot of knitting-ripping….. It can only be one thing - open mic night.
Backstage, seasoned performer, Mitch, tunes up against a backdrop of faded dreams and pain, pushed down. Another regular, Kate, is devastated when she hears that Mitch has decided to call it a day. Chrissie's taken over the clipboard and hosting for the first time. She needs it to go well. She needs her star turn to stay. Kate has a new song. The crowd are ready. In this room, on this night, there is hope and there is love.
Live music weaves into the fabric of this comedy drama, underpinning the joy and resilience of the unique community that is open mic night.
Following sold-out debut shows at Chichester Fringe and Worthing Festival, Sussex-based LT Productions are proud to be touring their one-act play by award-winning writer, Liz Tait, who also produces and directs. The three-strong, Brighton-based cast are: Andy Hutchison (Mitch), Helen Rogers (Chrissie) and Sally Best (Kate).
"Andy Hutchison performing as Mitch while playing his guitar is an absolute joy to hear"
"Chrissie, played by Helen Rogers, is cringingly hilarious"
"Liz Tait's writing is real and fresh and grounded, acutely observed and relatable"
