After a five-star, sellout run at VAULT Festival 2023, IN CLAY, a new musical comes to the main stage of The Other Palace for one night only. All-star casting for the concert is to be announced.
Combining jazz manouche with contemporary musical theatre, IN CLAY is a one-woman musical which debuted at VAULT Festival to stellar reviews earlier this year after sold out workshop performances at The Other Palace Studio and New Wimbledon Theatre Studio in late 2022. The
run was also nominated for Show of the Week, and an Offies OffFest award.
Based on a true story, the musical is told from a quaint Parisian kitchen in the late 1930s. Marie-Berthe Cazin, a ceramist in her early 40s, eagerly awaits the arrival of her closest childhood friend and now celebrated artist, Henrietta Tirman. As Marie prepares for the evening ahead, she reflects on
the great joys and sorrows of a life devoted to making art.
The concert will be directed by Grace Taylor, with musical direction by Matt Herbert.
