ALSO PLAYING

Tell Me on a Sunday, the onewoman song cycle/musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black, will play at The Everyman in Cork on May 11 and 12, performed by Irene Warren, who has sung in a number of top West End musicals. She’ll be accompanied by an onstage band of keyboard, sax/flute, cello, bass and drums. The mini-musical, as it has been called, follows the romantic problems and progress of a young Englishwoman in New York. The show started as an idea by Tim Rice, but Lloyd Webber decided to bring in Black as his new lyric writer.
