Wednesday 19th March : 7.45pm A
Grand Theatre Arts Wing
Equinox Theatre
Featuring the songs of Harry Parr Davies
with songs by Marguerite Monnot.
Written and directed by Chris Morgan
Musical director Christopher Fossey
Born in Briton Ferry in 1914, Harry Parr Davies was a prolific song writer who wrote for Gracie Fields, George Formby, Jessie Matthews, Jack Buchanan and many others. His songs have an evocative naive charm.
At the same time, on the other side of the Channel, Marguerite Monnot was writing emotionally charged songs for Edith Piaf. Monnot later went on to write the musical Irma La Douce.
Some of the songs will be familiar, but many are waiting to be rediscovered.
