LONDON-PARIS-ROAM !
A new one-woman musical show starring Sarah Tullamore
Original music and lyrics by James Burn
Book and additional music/lyrics by Sarah Tullamore
Directed by Frédéric Baptiste
Piano accompanist : César Cancino
She's jived in Japan, indulged in Italy, feasted in France and suddenly woken up to find she's now a woman of a certain age. When you have to sit down to put your tights on, it's obviously time to take stock.
So what's the next move, Sarah? Gay Paree has been magnifique but maybe it's time for a change?
In this funny and moving account of her globetrotting life so far, Sarah Tullamore is packing her bags, waving Au Revoir and singing brand new songs all about it.
Clear away the clutter
London-Paris-Roam ! A new show that fuses fabulous innovative music with an original story ! Situational comedy, heart-to-hearts with the audience, all with a narrative arc and song as an integral part of the storytelling to create a new type of show : a one-woman musical.
A selection of international reviews:
TV Bomb (Edinburgh Fringe)
There is something layered and special at the heart of this production
West End Wilma (Paris)
Sarah Tullamore is a great storyteller and has a beautiful voice that could rival Julie Andrews. She has an endearing manner and has put together a brilliant show that mixes Julia Roberts in Eat Pray Love with the style of Andrew Lloyd Webbers musical Tell Me On A Sunday. London-Paris-Roam! is definitely something I would take friends to see for a fun night out at the theatre!
Chris Omaweng (Londontheatre1.com)
This is a fun-filled hour and a bit, an enthusiastic and appealing production, utterly delightful.
Philip Todres (FMR Radio, Cape Town )
A great performance and the songs/music are superb. Sarah's smart personality shines through big time!
