Chair in the Landscape

Book, Music and Lyrics by Ian Jefferson and Beth Daly.
Additional Music by Daryl Wallis.

A poignant and dramatic musical in the style of Stephen Sondheim with a fabulous story that would suit all country towns and regional centres. First staged by the Bankstown Musical Society in 1992, it had its professional debut the same year in Sydney, followed by a production in 1995 by the Q theatre. Since then it has been staged with great acclaim by the Tamworth Dramatic Society.

SYNOPSIS: Bill runs a hotel business in the country, but it has fallen on hard times so a sale of his memorabilia has been organised to keep the place going. His daughter Tessa has been offered a place at a city Art Institute but is relucant to leave her Dad alone. Enter David Rigby a journalist and his girlfriend Prue looking to buy some antiques.

Bill resents the city folk and is angered when David tries to talk his daughter into attending the Art School in the city. An argument follows and Bill sets fire to the items for the auction and destroys part of the pub, leaving him with just A Chair in the Landscape.
