BOOKFEST 'REMEMBERS' November 2011

Michael Morpurgo returns to Shrewsbury

Michael Morpurgo held his audience spellbound in a stunning performance of The Mozart Question at Theatre Severn on 20th November. He was joined by actress Alison Reid, violinist Daniel Pioro and a dazzling young string quartet. Together, interweaving words and music, they told his haunting tale of survival against the odds, set against the background of the Holocaust, adapted and directed by Simon Reade.
