Aspects of Love Theatre Breaks
Aspects of Love : a romantic theatre break in London in 2023 to see Andrew Lloyd Webber’s hit musical at the Lyric Theatre for a strictly limited season last summer.
Aspects of Love is based on the novel by David Garnett about passion, love, life and loss in post-war France and Italy. It follows three generations of the Dillingham family spanning 20 years. Alex falls in love with an actress Rose and as the pair embark on a passionate affair, the unexpected arrival of Uncle George changes all their lives and those around them forever as they discover how love – in its many forms – truly does change everything.
Thirty four years after starring in the premiere of Aspects of Love as Alex, Michael Ball returned to the production as the uncle, George. Michael Ball got to number 2 in the UK pop charts with the hugely popular anthem “Love Changes Everything” from the show.
Joining Michael Ball was Olivier nominated Laura Pitt-Pulford (Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and Sunset Boulevard ), Jamie Bogyo (Moulin Rouge! The Musical) and Danielle de Niese (Man of La Mancha and It’s a Wonderful Life English National Opera).
Aspects of Love was directed by Jonathan Kent and was a re-imagined chamber version of the show. It has lyrics by Don Black and Charles Hart.
