Red Sky at Sunrise: Laurie Lee in Words & Music
Red Sky at Sunrise follows Laurie Lee through his much-loved trilogy, Cider with Rosie, As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning, and A Moment of War.
Two of our best-loved actors, Anton Lesser (Game of Thrones, Wolf Hall, Endeavour) and Charlie Hamblett (Netflix’s Missing You, BBC’s Killing Eve, Ghosts) play the role of Laurie Lee older and younger, along with a rich array of other characters.
The Swan’s artistic Director David Le Page has devised a gorgeous musical programme that weaves around Lee’s writing, from the lush Gloucestershire countryside Lee made famous in Cider With Rosie, to the dry landscapes of Spain, via the music of Vaughan Williams, Walton, Holst, Elgar, Britten, Grainger, Albéniz, Turina and De Falla. Featuring guitarist Craig Ogden performing Asturias, Sevilla and Spanish Romance.
