Mrs Gucci - the Concert
We're proud to announce the West End World Premier Concert Performance of Mrs Gucci at the Arts Theatre London on October 13th 2013.
After many years of development, the show is ready to go into production next year, and the one-off concert performance, lasting only an hour, will give you both a flavour of the music and the impetus of the narrative.
Julie Atherton will be singing the role of Patrizia Reggiani Martinelli (formerly Gucci) currently serving a 26 year prison sentence in San Vittore in Milan for murder. Her dead husband, former director of the famous fashion house, Maurizio Gucci, will be sung by Bart Edwards. His cousin, Paolo Gucci, will be sung by Graham MacDuff. The part of Patrizia's counsellor and psychic guru, Pina Auriemma, also serving a life sentence for murder, will be performed by Sophie-Louise Dunn.
The performance will commence at 6 O'Clock on Sunday 13th October, and last approximately an hour.

Together or Apart
Together
Or
Apart
Much easier to see
Just one dilemma
In the frame of forever
See it now
Together
Or
Apart
But unpick the words
Suspect the simplicity
Apart could be
Communing despite miles
A constant presence
Like a subtitle in your life
Apart could be
The meaning you hold
Like two strings vibrating
To the same note
Unpick the words
Together might mean
Cleaving down the middle
Inseparable as a wound
Dependent as enemies
Demanding as
A beggar's bowl
Imploring the pennies
That make you poor
Unpick the meaning, unpack the words
Go beyond the dilemma
See us both
Standing here
And listen to the world
Beneath the footsteps
And murmur of voices
And the passing cars
The world is so quiet
So quiet
And we have to keep
Ourselves
Together
And stop
Being
A part

Screenplays
Ten years after it was first broadcast, In Deep is out on DVD. I really should have mixed feelings about this. The first series was all over the place. As I explain below, the pilot episode which had got the show commissioned - Darkness on the Edge of Tow which was quite Wire-like in its exploration -
