LIFT the musical by Craig Adams and Ian Watson.

From the same team that brought you the 2014 Irish Premiere of “When Midnight Strikes”, NMT Productions have announced their summer show of 2015 “LIFT the Musical” directed by Sarah Cahill.

Written in 2013, this modern musical by Craig Adams & Ian Watson tells a story of love, life and loss all within the confinement of a London underground lift. We see how the things we dare not say could change our lives and how those closest to us can sometimes be those whom we’ve never met.

Eight people get in a lift at the Covent Garden tube station on an ordinary morning and what follows is an exploration into their thoughts. The journey these characters take, however, lasts much longer then the one minute they spend in the lift. We see everything these unknowing characters think and while these characters’ innermost secrets are revealed, we realise that in some way they are all connected and by simply reaching out to one another they might change their lives forever.
