This is similar to the Shakespeare cabaret I did in 2006 although with less dialogue and minimal staging. Some of the same music is performed ("Come Away, Death," "Ganymede") but there are also some new pieces. I have one solo--"The Willow Song." It's quite good, along the lines of "Come Away, Death."
