I'd never heard of this musical until Saturday night.

Jane Eyre: The Musical
Book by: John Caird
Lyrics by: Paul Gordon
Music by: Paul Gordon

I was competing at the local Eisteddfod on Saturday night and in one of the sections, two ladies sang a duet from the musical called "In the Light of the Virgin Morning". It was fantastic song and beautifully sung.

Any one heard or seen the show?

It seems a nice little music. Possibly a bit repetitive in places, but not bad. A girl in one of my previous casts was obsessed with it.

I could have sworn I heard something about that. Turns out it was just the non-musical Jane Eyre on the West End.

I've never heard any of the songs, and I'm not sure I want to. I bet it focusses on the depressing side, which really wouldn't do justice to the book.
