⭐ METTA THEATRE ANNOUNCE CELLS – A MUSICAL FILM STARRING CLIVE ROWE & LEM KNIGHTS ⭐
A film of a brand-new musical, CELLS, written, developed and recorded entirely during lockdown, has been announced.
Metta Theatre – one of the UK’s leading production companies devoted to British musical theatre – is pleased to announce the release of a film of a brand-new musical, CELLS, by the award-winning writer/director P Burton-Morgan and composer Ben Glasstone.
CELLS stars Metta’s recently announced Patron, the Olivier award-winning Clive Rowe alongside rising star Lem Knights.
A university science lab. A kebab shop at 2am. An online gaming forum. Two strangers’ lives become intertwined. Alan Bennett meets The Streets in this tender and uplifting new work, giving voice to the lives of two everyday blokes.
Metta are partnering with three major regional venues – Royal & Derngate Northampton, Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch and the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough – with each partner venue hosting episodes on their websites.
The first episode will be launched on 19th April, with subsequent episodes released daily, and the full film will be available on 26th April, along with the album to be released on Spotify and other digital platforms.
The film, in episode form and then in its entirety will be free to all to access via YouTube with a suggested donation (£3 per episode, £10 for the whole film) – all of which will go to the three regional theatres to help support their recovery.
CELLS is written and directed by P Burton-Morgan (In the Willows), with music by Ben Glasstone, mixed and mastered by Simon Small and the Musical Director is Phil Cornwell. The Director of Photography is Jon Dickinson, the films are edited by Will Reynolds. Phil Cornwell plays keys and double bass and Curtis Volp is on guitar.
