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.
