EDINBURGH 2016 - BWW Review: NO HORIZON, Underbelly Med Quad, 15 August
New musical No Horizon has been garnering a good deal of attention, with airings on Elaine Paige's radio show, and Chris Evans dubbing it 'the Yorkshire Les Mis'. Â It would perhaps be fairer to say it is in the vein of The Theory of Everything, only with added Yorkshire charm. Â Based on a true story, No Horizon depicts the life of Nicholas Saunderson, a young Yorkshireman who was blinded by smallpox as a baby.
