On the 13 April, 2014, the Richard Rodgers Award-winning musical theatre duo Carner & Gregor brought a concert version of their new musical ISLAND SONG to the studio space at The Other Palace, then known as the St James Theatre. As part of this one-off concert performance, Stuart Matthew Price (Rocky Horror Show, Parade, Shrek) sang "Stay Awhile".
Island Song takes the audience through a year in the lives of five twenty- and thirtysomethings sharing a city, and the chain of surprising, meaningful and partially random connections that bring them into each other's spheres at moments that become pivotal.
