Saw it last night. The story is so smart, the music powerful and emotional, that cast is great. It’s moving and so so beautiful!

I've always enjoyed musicals, but as a Sheffielder to see a show about your home city and to see it do so well is amazing. It has some brilliant songs, the storyline is very much that of the city in the late 20th century, and whilst it may not be perfection, it is still stunning. It's the talents of Richard Hawley, Chris Bush, and the many actors, production team and others involved in putting it together that makes it work, and I am so proud and genuinely emotional that this comes out of my city.

The Full Monty, Everyone's Talking About Jaime, Standing At The Sky's Edge. Not a bad Sheffield hat trick.

Everyone’s Talking About Jamie is shit

I’ve seen this show twice in Sheffield and it’s brilliant! Richard Hawley is a fantastic song writer and the songs fit in perfectly with the play’s narrative.

I’m from the US and I’m so curious about this show. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to see it next year when it opens up again

(lyrics) Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife His hungry little children, he took their lives This was the act of a desperate man With only love in his eyes, no evil hands He was standing at the sky's edge And out there who knows what he's thinking He was sliding down the razor's edge And watched his life slowly sinking Away, away Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat She had to sell her body to put shoes on her feet Stole a car and tried to get away Now all she hears is the rain on the roof At sky's edge jail She was standing at the sky's edge And out there who knows what she's thinking She was sliding down the razor's edge And watched her life slowly sinking Away, away They were standing at the sky's edge And out there who knows what they're thinking They were sliding down the razor's edge And watched their lives slowly sinking Away, away, away, away, away Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade So much fear in the city it carried him away Young men were fighting and loosing their lives At night as the screech howls in the trees watch Young men die They were standing at the sky's edge And out there who knows what they're thinking They were sliding down the razor's edge And watched their lives slowly sinking They were standing at the sky's edge And out there there's dangerous thinking They were standing at the mirror's edge And watched their lives slowly sinking Away, away, away, away, away

Is this musical based in Sheffield England? Why are they singing in an American accent?

@wistfulwitch-vibes8435 Жыл бұрын

theres a mixture of accents in the show so its probs so they all blend together

The songs in SATSE are Richard Hawley compositions, not originally written specifically for theatre. Richard Hawley, whilst from Sheffield and using the city for lyrical inspiration, writes music that is often heavily tinged with Americana, and originally recorded this song (which has a Southern blues feel) with an affected American twang, because it suits the genre. The show has done likewise because the songs are used as broad tonal mood pieces rather than as strict narrative.

Find the cast recording to hear how it sounded when recorded during a Crucible performance.

Lots of singing sound American when they sing English.

Average songs, weird accents, odd choreography and Sheffield Alabama apparently. Well done in the awards, but it's no Blood Brothers.

I saw the show at the Gillian Lynne Theatre last week and it was absolutely amazing. Please don’t judge it on this one song.

@Dawoodcock 4 ай бұрын

Find the cast recording version of the song on this site and listen to that, the powerfulness of this is lost in the RAH, sounds much better in the smaller surroundings of the theatres the show has been to. The odd choreography works when you see the entire show..
