Soundtrack to your Life
Wednesday 3rd November - Saturday 6th November
£6-£4

Have you ever wanted a soundtrack to your life? Ever found that perfect song for that special moment? We have too. Here is a montage of scenes inspired by, written for and with, directed and performed to those wonderful pieces of music.

Come and see the work of Cambridge’s most impressive writers, directors and actors. Each has chosen a song that inspires them somehow. It might make them laugh, cry, shout and rage, or it may be their favourite morning radio tune. Together they have crafted scenes to the music, filled with people you could meet on any street, in any house; they could even be you. The characters live a moment beautifully set to music, music that becomes the soundtrack to their lives.

To live these moments with them, come and experience Soundtrack to your Life.

CUMTS presents
Rent
by Music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson
Tuesday 9th November - Saturday 13th November
£12-£8

CUMTS are pleased to present Rent, the rock opera by Jonathan Larson, as their 2010 Michaelmas Musical! Based around the story of eight friends living, loving and protesting together against poverty and AIDS in New York in the 1990s, this musical captures the heart and spirit of a generation of struggling artists, addicts, and impoverished young people. As Mark begins a new film on Christmas Eve in New York, the night of Maureen's protest against the tyranny of their local landlord, their friends and lovers gather together - Collins returns to the city, meeting an unexpected Angel on the streets, whilst Roger works on his final song after recovering from a drug addiction and the suicide of his girlfriend. Mimi, an exotic dancer, falls in love, whilst Joanne struggles to cope with the ups and downs of her free-spirited girlfriend. Decisions are made that will change the group's lives together. But as the year goes on, and bereavement threatens to tear apart the very heart of bohemia, can this disparate group of friends, each looking to leave their mark on the world, stay together?

Join us this Michaelmas for an emotional yet upbeat tour through the New York of the 1990s. With a beautiful and breathtaking score and book by Jonathan Larson, and a fantastic amount of talent on stage, this show promises to be the one to watch this term!
