⭐ THE RHYTHMICS – NEW BRITISH MUSICAL – CONCEPT ALBUM RELEASED ONLINE ⭐
The concert album for brand new British musical The Rhythmics has been released online.
It is now available on Spotify, iTunes and via other digital platforms.
Co-produced by Aria Entertainment and Metta Theatre. The show had been able to record a full cast album during lockdown.
The concept album’s cast includes Samuel Thomas, Neil McDermott, Kinny Gardner, Christopher Staines, Daniel York Loh, Kelly Price, Eleanor Kane and more.
Hapless single-dad Grey is in a rut. Teenage daughter Silva packs him off to revive his rockstar dreams. He successfully auditions for ‘Nick & the Rhythmics’ only to realise… He’s actually signed up for an all-male Rhythmic Gymnastics troupe.
Against the odds these burly blokes twirl their ‘ribbons of fire’ as far the World Championships – and along the way Grey finally learns to embrace life. Calendar Girls meets Full Monty in this joyous new musical.
Book and lyrics by Poppy Burton-Morgan (co-founder of Metta Theatre) with music and lyrics by Stiles + Drewe award-winner Ben Glasstone (Reanimator).
The show will also incorporate fully integrated BSL choreography from Mark Smith (artistic director of Deaf Men Dancing).
The Rhythmics was selected for presentation at the BEAM2020 showcase, co-produced by Musical Theatre Network and Mercury Musical Developments in partnership with Royal and Derngate, Northampton.
The full production of The Rhythmics is due to be staged next year.
