lorca

A theatre musical based on the life and death of Federico García Lorca, Spain's most famous poet.

	Five in the afternoon Hot, black summer night Naked in the moonlight ...
	In Granada In Granada - shadows creep through Streets that haunt you...
	Un chien andalou Didn't you use to be a taller man And dress in a suit of white...

The script for the Lorca musical was written by John Howlett. I wrote the lyrics for the songs and the music was composed by Theo Jaskolkowski. Two other key members of the creative team were director Ron Daniels, and Txetxu Egurrola who adapted the script and lyrics for the Spanish version.
