Victoria Wood That Musical We Made

That Musical We Made is an honest and funny look at the making of a musical Victoria Wood takes us behind the scenes of That Day We Sang the film she wrote and directed and also looks at the real events which inspired her story She goes back to Manchester to find out about the original choir of the 1920s and the children who sang on the record of Nymphs and Shepherds And in between unpeeling the history and sharing the fun of the shoot she tries to work out how a piece of writing can evolve Victoria unpicks the process in an attempt to understand how what started as a straightforward account of a day in the life of a childrens choir in 1929 ended up as a middleaged love story about the power of music to reconnect lonely people and give them a second chance to fall in love
