'I am overjoyed that the magnificent Tyne Theatre in my hometown of Newcastle will play host for the first ever version of 'The Dolce Vita'. Big new homegrown musicals like this are pretty rare these days. It's a lovely story; set in such a wonderful period, the north east of England in the 'swinging' 60s. The musical is rich with exciting characters, a fascinating casino/nightclub backdrop with two contrasting young love stories. It's about aspiration, dreams and Fridays nights. It's such a lot of fun. A real rollercoaster. I do hope everyone enjoys the brand new score. I think it has something for everyone. It was a total dream to write. We've such a brilliant team and talented cast on board for the workshop, I just can't wait to see it all burst into life' -Stuart Brayson-Composer
