Music - vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion. From the company that brought you the critically adored Man-Cub, WoLab present PlayList: an event bringing together a collective of performance makers, giving them an opportunity to try their ideas out. Prospective playwrights had the following task: Write a short play, scene or monologue inspired by a song that means something to you. You can choose any theme, however the piece has to be the same length as the song that inspired it. 19 writers have been chosen to tell stories that provoke, challenge and inspire. Bowie, Cyndi Lauper, Frank Ocean, P!nk, PJ Harvey and Tracy Chapman are just a few of the artists that have inspired the selection. Join WoLab as we press PLAY.
