CityLife

A musical in which the bright-eyed and youthful Swallow discovers a mysterious man hiding in her family's barn. When she asks for his identity the first words he utters are 'Jesus Christ', and it's as though her prayers have been answered. While the rest of the townspeople are searching for a fugitive escaped from jail, Swallow gathers the town's children who make a pact to protect their new found saviour from the cruelties of the outside world. An extraordinary and uplifting tale about the transforming power of love based on the 60s film starring Hayley Mills, it features numerous multi-award-winning songs, including Boyzone's international hit 'No Matter What'.
