I Believe in One Bach ~ Camden, London


  • Etcetera Theatre Club 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)

A dark psychological drama from Two Foolish Productions exploring what happens when the world thinks that we are no longer relevant, played out to the sublime music of Bach’s B Minor Mass.

Ageing violinist Alan Gottlieb is content to sit at the back desk of the seconds, coasting his way to retirement.

I Believe in One Bach follows his unravelling when an appraisal finds him wanting, and he risks losing the one thing that gave his life meaning.

Shunned by colleagues, management and friends, and facing his own feeling of inadequacy, he reaches for inspiration from Bach. But when Bach reaches back to him and his desk partner is not who she seems to be, everything appears to be lost.

Is this obsession or madness?

A new play from Chris Brannick, winner of the 2018 Global Motion Pictures Award for Best Screenplay.
