Devilish!, an original musical comedy with 16 songs (music by BB Cooper and book and lyrics by Chris Burgess), at the Landor Theatre from Wednesday 4 - Sunday 29 May, was inspired by John Ruskin's comment that an angel appearing on earth would be shot on sight.

H.G Wells wrote a novel called "The Wonderful Visit" based on this observation, but now a new team of writers offer their musical take on this premise. This cartoonish comedy features an original score crammed with upbeat songs aiming to prove that the devil doesn't have all the best tunes.

BB Cooper has enjoyed a long-established career as a composer with a number of stage productions and recordings to her name, each written in her own unique style. www.bbcooper.com

Chris Burgess's credits include "Lunch with Marlene" starring Kate O'Mara (UK tour), and "Dishonorable Ladies", starring Honor Blackman (Criterion Theatre). His musical "Sleeping Arrangements" also premièred at the Landor Theatre in 2013.
