| ‘The Accordionist’, co-written by and starring accordionist Romano Viazzani, opens at the New End Theatre, Hampstead, London NW3 1JD, on April 5th and runs until April 24th (Easter Sunday), with matinees at 3pm on 8th, 9th, 15th, 16th, 23rd, and 24th. Romano writes: “That's 7 performances per week for 3 weeks. That’s quite a lot of tickets to sell in that time period so please try to come and see it! Happily we got some excellent reviews in Exeter so I hope it will be worth seeing it. Here's a recap to whet your appetites. (Don't tell me what night you're coming on as being a bit new to acting it will only make me nervous!) I hope to see you all after the shows. Do cheer and clap enthusiastically during the show especially after every song and of course at my full-frontal nudity scene (only kidding, just checking to see that you're still concentrating!). ‘The Accordionist’ is the story of talented Piaf tribute act Jacqueline Lacroix (Bethany Jameson) who returns to performing after years of enforced silence. An unexpected encounter with an enigmatic accordionist (Romano Viazzani) brings a mysterious past to bear on the uncertain present. But what secrets do the two artists share? An intimate portrayal of love and loss, the unique sound of the accordion embodies both passion and pain in a highly-charged new text. The score features original arrangements of Piaf classics such as ‘Milord’, ‘La Foule’, and ‘Padam Pada,’ as well as new songs by Jameson and Viazzani. One of the songs is written by Karen Street. It’s a short show, 7pm to 8.10 pm, and you can make it a night out with a drink or a meal afterwards in Hampstead. Or you could see both the shows on that night. The second show is called ‘Double Bass’, about a double bass player, written by Philip Suskind”. Romano Viazzani has three CD's available online at his website Romano Viazzani including sound samples. For further information email: romanoviazzani@hotmail.co.uk |
