2. DRINKING SONG
(Macbeth at the Redcliffe Caves)
I'll eat 'til there is no more
Drink until it all is gone
I'll roam, 'til my seed runs dry
Conquer 'til my legs give up
I'll shoot, 'til my quiver's spent
Fight until my sword is blunt
And with my countrymen I'll serve the king
Until his reign is done...
​
Pour, pour, pour, pour
Pour me another one
'Til there is no more
Pour me another one...

Raise your cup to victory...

3. DUNCAN'S
FUNERAL
(Macbeth at the Redcliffe Caves)
Cold as I was on the day of my birth
Let not my death be my enemy's mirth
Rather my leaving betray his true worth
And bid him soon lie in the umberous earth
​
Fate warms its heart in the blackening sky
An old barren soul, with a deafening cry
Pray that you all know the truth when I die
That it not be marred by a pilferous lie
​
Fortune absolve me, a son so devout
Your hours I observed leave me not without
Sorrow be kind to me, spare my my doubt
My truth be bold and cast me not out
​
Featuring Helen Cockill, Natalie Farr, & Zach Powell.
Music by E. Showering

5. ALL THAT I HAVE
(Orpheus & Eurydice in the Clifton Suspension Bridge Vaults)
Without your words I break
In pieces for the taking
Carve me whole, and keep my flesh
​
I have reached you, I have reached you
I have reached you, finally reached you
I can smell you when I breathe
And I can hear you
​
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
​
It's taken all that I have, just to be here, just to be here
Taken all that I have, just to be here, just to be here...
(repeats)
​
Beneath the barren earth
My life once more awakens
Naught but death between our lips
​
I have reached you, I have reached you
I have reached you, finally reached you
I can feel you in the air and I can see you
Can you see me?
​
Can you see me?
Can you feel me?
Can you hear me?
​
It's taken all that I have
All that I have (all that I have)
All that I have (all that I have)
All that I have....

6. DOWN WITH THE TOPMAST
(The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt)
Down with the topmast, lower, lower
Fall to't or we run ourselves aground
High my hearts, cheerly, cheerly my hearts
I pray now keep below
Go tend to the Master's whistle
Take in the topsail, ahold
Bestir, bestir, poor souls bestir
Shall we give oe'r and drown
Now would I give a thousand furlongs
For one barren acre of ground
We split, we split, stand fast good fate
The wills above be done
I'll be patient when the sea is
They shout "let's all sink with the King"
A plague, a plague upon this howling
They are louder than the weather
Down with the topmast, lower, lower
Fall to't or we run ourselves aground
High my hearts, cheerly, cheerly my hearts
I pray now keep below
I pray now keep below
​
Featuring Helen Cockill, Natalie Farr & Ellie Showering
Music by E. Showering
Lyrics by W. Shakespeare adapted by E. Showering
7. THE ISLAND
(The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt)
I have kissed the wild waves whist
I saw all the charms, every fertile inch o' the isle
Let me live here ever, this place, paradise
Wilt thou go with me, here in this island?
Come unto these yellow sands, prithee now, lead the way
Be not afeared, sounds and sweet airs give delight
The isle is full of noises, such shapes, such gesture and such sound
Such gesture and such sound
This music crept by me upon the waters, in the air and the earth
a thousand voices hum about mine ears
Where should this music be? It waits upon some God
​

Lyrics by W. Shakespeare adapted by E. Showering
8. MONSTER
(The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Poor monster, weak monster, no monster, quiet monster
Brave monster, howl monster, man monster, ridiculous monster
Lead monster, plague monster, bully monster, tyrant monster
Scurvy monster, shallow monster, servant monster
Ignorant monster
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah, oo-ah
Sometime I am all wound with adders who, with cloven tongues, do hiss me into madness
Heavens keep me from these beasts
Freckled whelp, hag borne, dull thing
Torment to the damned
Savage, abhorred slave, brutish, vile race
Shrugst thou, monster? Do you hear, monster? Art thou lost, monster?
Poor worm thou art infected, I fear a madness holds you
Creature composed of harshness, filth as thou art, imposter
Fury crack, cracked misshapen, sour eyed disdain and discord
Most lying and most wicked, being unfit to live
​
Featuring Helen Cockill as CALIBAN, Natalie Farr & Ellie Showering
Music by E. Showering
Lyrics by W. Shakespeare adapted by E. Showering
9. BY THE WATERS
(The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt)
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Two most rare affections
My admired, hear my soul speak to you
Worth what’s dearest to the world
By the waters I did find you, I did warm you
Be of comfort, beyond limit I will love you
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Here’s my hand with my heart in’t
Oh you wonder, precious creature
I’ll be your surety
​
I found you somehow
I found you somehow
I found you somehow
I found you somehow
I found you somehow
I found you somehow
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Be of comfort, beyond limit I will love you

10. THE TEMPEST
(The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt)
Blow, ‘til thou burst thy wind
You do assist the storm
Command these elements to silence
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all
Wild waters sink the sea within the earth
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all lost
All lost to prayers to prayers to prayers all
Tread the ooze of the salty deep
Run upon the sharp wind of the north
In the veins of the earth
Hell is empty all the devils are here (all lost to prayers)
Hell is empty all the devils are here (all lost to prayers)
Hell is empty,
Hell is empty,
Hell is empty and all the devils are here
Here

11. COME AWAY DEATH
(Insane Root at the Underglobe)
Come away, come away, death
And in sad Cyprus let me be laid
Fly away, fly away, breath
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
My shroud of white all stuck with yew
O prepare it
My part of death no one so true
Did share it
​
Not a flower, not a flower, sweet
On my black coffin let there be strewn
Not a friend, not a friend, greet
My poor corpse where my bones shall be thrown
A thousand thousand sighs to say
Lay me over
Sad true lover never find my grave
To weep there
​
Oo....

12. THE WEDDING
(Romeo & Juliet in Eastville Park Swimming Pool)
With eye thou see'st all beauty
With ear thou hear'st all song
With hand thy touch doth make breath quake
With tongue thy truth is painted sure
With heart thy love becomes thee brave...

13. JULIET'S FUNERAL
(Romeo & Juliet in Eastville Park Swimming Pool)
Tho' breath be gone, mine eyes forever closed
Tho' mind and body lie in dark repose
Tho' heavy be my shadow looming high
Mourn not, for our name will never die
Mourn not, for our name will never die
​
Raise cup and drink, for solace it shall give
Raise voice and shout, my memory to live
Send me off, no riches at my side
Mourn not, for our name will never die
Mourn not, for our name will never die
​
Forget me not, for I am bound to thee
This blood will link us for eternity
My family was 'ere my greatest pride
Mourn not, for our name will never die
Mourn not, for our name will never die
​
Featuring Amy Gardyne, Zach Powell & Ellie Showering.
