The Studio Cast recording of a brand new epic musical from Wales - MY LAND'S SHORE - is now available on iTunes.

There will be a high profile workshop of MY LAND'S SHORE (written by Christopher J. Orton & myself) in London early next year, followed (hopefully) by a full production later in the year. Announcements of full details will be made in due course.
Director Craig Revel Horwood (Chess, Martin Guerre) described My Land's Shore as "a powerful story with a beautiful, soaring score - a Welsh Les Mis" and Stiles & Drewe (Mary Poppins, Honk) wrote that the show has "a soaring, passionate and hauntingly melodic score which, though set in 1831, has a resonance and relevance in today's Eurozone era".
The album shot right up the Dress Circle Best Seller list when it was released in February and has been selling well across the globe since then - in the UK, Germany, USA, Australia & Japan. You can find out more by checking out our show's website, where you can listen to audio clips of songs & order a CD online (if you prefer a hard copy to a downloadable one).
The album features an amazing West End cast of vocalists - Jonathan Williams (Les Mis, Godspell), Alexis James (War Of The Worlds, Les Mis, Romeo & Juliet, Notre Dame De Paris), Rhiannon Sarah Porter (Jesus Christ Superstar, Les Mis), Kelly Anne Gower (Blood Brothers, Les Mis, We Will Rock You), Kit Orton (Spamalot), Sarah Lark (Les Mis, Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, Oliver!), Gareth Richards (Thornbirds, Only The Brave) & Killian Donnelly (Billy Elliot, The Phantom Of The Opera, Les Mis).
