The Ballad of Salomon Pavey
The compelling story of two rival groups of boy actors at court during the reign of Elizabeth I.
Salomon Pavey, an outstanding young actor with a flair for playing the parts of old men, unwittingly becomes involved in the politics of the Royal Court with tragic results - a victim not only of his enemies, but also of his success. A ballad opera that uses popular music of the period, capturing beautifully the spirit of the Elizabethan age.
