24 hour musical

In Cambridge things changes very slowly. Come back in ten, twenty or thirty years and it will look very familiar. However, some things happen more quickly. C.U.M.T.S 24 hour musical is an example of such a thing. In 24 hours the music, lyrics and choreography is written and sorted out for a musical piece.

I had photographed the last performance of Equus right before, so decided to linger a bit at the ADC Theatre. Here are the photos from the evening show.
