iVisit.... The Old Vic Our Show Screenings for Mood Music

Roger Michell's production of Joe Penhall's Mood Music is the next archive production in the Your Old Vic series. The play, which was performed on our 200th birthday in 2018, will be available to watch from 7pm BST on Wed 08 Jul – Tue 14 Jul.

In a top London recording studio, Cat, a young songwriter, her producer Bernard, their lawyers and psychotherapists go to battle over who owns a hit song. Amidst a gathering storm of bitter complaints and recriminations Cat and Bernard inflict a devastating toll on each other.

‘Music is medication. The elixir of life. It’s for injecting into the blood stream to take away the pain…to promote euphoria…to adrenalise us and give us courage and empathy.’

Mood Music is a timely play about power, passion and the price of creativity, written by Joe Penhall (Sunny Afternoon, Blue/Orange) and directed by Roger Michell (Notting Hill, Enduring Love).
