On Wednesday 17th December 2014, just in time for Christmas, SimG Records, the leading independent British label devoted to new musical theatre writers and artists, is to release this exciting new studio cast recording.
With Music and Story by Lee Ormsby, Book and Lyrics by Jonathan Wakeham, PARADISE LOST is a new epic musical inspired by the poem by John Milton. This version tells an intimate love story set against an epic backdrop of war - a search for happiness at a time of culture clash, political violence and change. This is a story for our time and for all time.
The 'limited edition' 24 track double-disc physical CD includes a 12 page colour booklet, with full synopsis, features a company of 28 West End singers, and stars Charlotte Wakefield (two-time Olivier nominee: Sound Of Music, Spring Awakening), Ricardo Afonso (Women On The Verge, We Will Rock You) and Matthew Wycliffe (Commitments, Jersey Boys), with Julie Atherton, Dominic Brewer, Me'sha Bryan, Stephen Carlile, Anna Francolini, Trevor Jary, Andrew Keelan, Shekinah Mcfarlane, Annette Mclaughlin, Amanda Minihan, Wendy Paver and David Phipps-Davis.
Produced by Simon Greiff for SimG Records, PARADISE LOST will be available from digital stores in early 2015, but physical copies can be pre-ordered now from www.SimGProductions.com and www.paradiselostmusical.co.uk
