SUMMARY:Bluecoat: Bluecoat: Narvik: a new play with songs
DESCRIPTION:Narvik: a new play with songs\n\nOn nightly at 7.30pm\, Mon 27
  Feb - Fri 3 Mar 2017.\n\n“If I was to throw myself beneath that tide...
  If I was to let the water take me\, 'til the cold felt like heat\, like l
 ove...”\n\nNarvik tells the story of a Liverpudlian man and a Norwegian 
 woman pulled together and torn apart by war as the events of one summer ca
 use ripples across an ocean of time.\nFusing live folk music and new writi
 ng to create a patchwork of memory and dream\, Narvik is a bold new play s
 et during the Second World War that brings to life a powerful story of lov
 e\, guilt\, heroism and betrayal.\n\nFollowing an acclaimed run at the Liv
 erpool Playhouse Studio\, Narvik embarks on a national tour as part of Box
  of Tricks’ tenth anniversary season. Lizzie Nunnery is an award-winni
 ng playwright (‘Intemperance’ at Everyman Liverpool and ‘The Swallow
 ing Dark’ at Liverpool Playhouse Studio and Theatre503) and celebrated s
 inger/songwriter (“Rebel folk endures and develops uniquely – just lis
 ten to Lizzie Nunnery” – The Observer).\n\nDue to the intimate nature 
 of this piece latecomers will not be admitted.\n\n"A thrillingly theatrica
 l encapsulation of a little-known theatre of war" - **** The Guardian\n\n
 “Sailors and sound effects are a perfect match in a wartime tale. Lizzie
  Nunnery’s play with music captures bittersweet memories of the North At
 lantic convoys as documentary meets melancholy ballad… Narvik is not lik
 e anything else I have heard in the theatre… Full of rich material… A 
 compressed exploration of the effects of war\, reaching out to a language 
 other than words.” - **** The Observer\n\n“Nunnery’s unique theatri
 cal fusion of haunting music and poetic imagery… Although Hannah Tyrrell
 -Pinder’s production works as an effortless ensemble piece\, the entire 
 narrative sinks or swims on Joe Shipman’s compelling pivotal performance
  as Jim\, a once courageous young man now drowning in guilt. A spellbindin
 g study of wartime lovers lost at sea.” - ***** The Stage\n\n“It has 
 a dreamlike eeriness — and it is acted with a raw and intimate directnes
 s… The songs — from wistful\, rippling sea shanties to lusty drinking 
 anthems and yearning rhapsodies — are pungently atmospheric\, accompanie
 d by an on-stage three-strong band… It has a tang and a tenderness that 
 linger.” - **** The Times\n\nBOOK HERE
