Taking the Millennium
Taking the Millennium
We concluded our gender-bending Taking the... trilogy with a revue that celebrated musical theatre works that premiered in the 21st century. Many company members stepped up to take the reigns and direct or choreograph a song or two, collaborating to create a show that felt truly Footlights' own.
Music directed by Michael Stebbings with Stephen Clothier
Directed and choreographed by Ben Emerson, Brigid Boyle, Ed Blunden, Ellie Stewart, Esther Walsh, Karen Anslow, Kenneth Gaffney, Mike Bryant, Ruby Kemp, Sara McBride
