This Side of Life


Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society

Manhattan buskers, cockney con-men, Broadway dreams. Nina and Robert have high hopes for the big stage. But when they get mixed-up in a scam that promises them everything, they discover that money is the loudest mouth, even in art. This Side of Life is a feel-good Golden Age throwback musical from The Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society that explores the struggle for artistic recognition, the lengths people will go to “make it” and the importance of staying in love with the art you create.
