Synopsis: | William and the Tradesmen is a one-man acoustic guitar rock musical about an Anglophile with a problem. Will Bray is a down-and-out New York singer-songwriter saddled with a glut of romantic problems, a thousand and one insecurities, and a backing band that keeps standing him up for gigs. To get him out of his rut, he summons British rock legends Morrissey, Joe Strummer, and Paul Weller into his bedroom to beg their advice on love and music. Conceived, written, and performed by Eli James with original music throughout, William and the Tradesmen is part concert, part play, and a parade of transatlantic voices-a darkly comic rock and roll journey into the mind of a post-punk obsessive | |||||
