Bright and Brave: A New Musical The Fellowship
About This Show
It is England 1872 and a sense of longing has filled the halls of Eton College. Best friends, Regy and Chat, have found themselves enraptured in what could only be the pure innocence of love. Under the guidance of their controversially progressive teacher, William Johnson Corey, and their friends Elliot and Beak, the boys embark on a journey of self discovery as they learn to overcome societal pressures, and fight for what they love.
