Loving Repeating - Vic Theatre Company
Gertrude Stein's iconic words have been brought to the stage and set to music.
Overview
You wouldn’t think that the almost-impenetrable writing of Gertrude Stein would lend itself to the spirit-fingered, glittery world of musical theatre. But somehow, Tony-award winning composer Stephen Flaherty has wrangled Stein’s writing into the lyrics of an ambitious chamber musical, Loving Repeating.
This may be an impressive feat from Flaherty but he’s perhaps best known to tragic 90s kids for his work with Lynn Ahrens on the not-sure-if-Disney-or-not animated classic, Anastasia.
Loving Repeating is also the first offering from fledgling Melbourne theatre outfit Vic Theatre Company, a fledgling Melbourne theatre outfit who have an unashamed and admirable commitment to providing actors with sustainable work. For the company’s first show it features a stellar cast, including Australian TV and stage legend Deidre Rubenstein and Melbourne cabaret star Gillian Cosgriff.
