Elegy for a Gentle Man
Da Capo Music Ltd. DC 750 (2010) pp29
THE ARGUMENT:
This Song Cycle almost became a novel. The main characters are:- an unnamed man, a gardener, whose gentle care invites the natural world to flourish around him; his unnamed spouse, who left him when their daughter Elizabeth was too young to remember; and Elizabeth herself.
In the first chapter of her story, she's a little girl who has only just grown tall enough to open the park gates. Without knowing him, she has independent access to her father as he works; he doesn't claim any relationship, but she seems to have inherited his love of gardens.
Sure enough, in the second chapter she's a student of horticulture, she has come of age, and has researched her own roots. There is shy recognition between father and daughter in the gardens at Harlow Carr. From now on their relationship can grow.
Chapter three introduces the character of Elizabeth's mother, excited by a new hat, and unprepared for a sudden reunion with her former partner. Their daughter's wedding among roses promises future happiness, and past differences are reconciled. After all, the family tree is set to branch out.
In the fourth chapter, Elizabeth's children step into the Song Cycle, carrying garden tools and growing up to carry on the work. Patient mentoring by their grandfather has born fruit; they are enthusiastic gardeners - which is just as well. The old man's physical strength is waning.
In the fifth and final chapter of his story, the departing of this gentle man is mourned, not only by the family which has grown around him, but also by the familiar bird companions of his outdoor life, celebrating a fellowship he enjoyed with all the natural world.

LOVE CHILD A New Musical by Freda Kelsall and Christopher Irvin. Full performing set LOVE CHILD A New Musical by Freda Kelsall and Christopher Irvin.
Full performing set The Amber Ring (2005) :
The story tells of families living in a textile town, the mill-owning Cloughs, and the staunch chapel-going Holroyds, an unmarried mother, the hand-to-mouth Wilkies, and the relationship of sons and daughters whose destinies are influenced by the traumas of World War I.
It has fun, pathos and romance, and needs plenty of energy!

The original songs illustrate a journey from Music Hall style to the Charleston era, with at least fifteen roles for solo performers, (some can be doubled;) and a range of scenes to engage the full ensemble.
The show can involve 30 - 50 singers, actors, and dancers, accompanied by a pianist and a small orchestra. It can be simply staged, in an open area with set elements positioned by the cast as part of the action, combined with the creative use of sound, lighting, stylised costume, and minimal props; or there are opportunities for more complex and costly productions. In certain circumstances, permission may be granted to adapt the work to suit the needs of particular groups.
Love Child was commissioned in 2003 for final-year Performing Arts students at Huddersfield Technical College in West Yorkshire, England, and first produced at the Highfields Theatre in April 2004.
'A new show to delight audiences for years to come'
