- Details
Clive will make a special guest appearance at a fundraising concert in Devizes, UK on July 20th, 2013. “A Night of Theatre: Songs from the West End and original music by Clive Nolan” will be the last of the 'Alchemy' fundraising events. The show will feature performances of Victoria Bolley, Agnieszka Swita, Chris Lewis and more... The funds raised during will go to support the 'Alchemy' shows in Cheltenham in September 2013.
Clive: "I really thought that our visit to France in early July was going to be the final fundraiser for 'Alchemy'. I must admit I have thoroughly enjoyed these little concerts and to be honest I will miss them. Then as if by magic Vicky manages to pull another one out of the hat… great news. I am looking forward to having one more bout of fundraising craziness before the shows. So… come and check out members of the 'Alchemy' cast in a more informal setting before they take to the Playhouse stage in September. Oh yes.. and I'll be there too!"

The French-speaking part of the world will be pleased to read an interview with Clive Nolan and Agnieszka Swita and a review of the 'Alchemy' fundraising show that took place in Villamblain in March 2013.
“Villamblain, Loiret, 275 inhabitants. Strange place for a meeting, a funny place for a fundraiser. All this would never have happened if not for a chance meeting at the Loreley Festival in 2012...
During the conversation, Clive talks about his new project, 'Alchemy', and his desire to perform on a “proper” stage. The question is: how to assemble the means? A simple idea which originated in South America was to organise a few acoustic concerts for small audiences. This way you can present something interesting and to raise funds for the show at the same time.” Check MusicWaves.fr for more.

'Alchemy' Fundraising Concerts
- Details
Three of the 'Alchemy' fundraising concerts took place in three countries, the Netherlands, the UK and France, in March 2013 with a thought of raising funds for the 'Alchemy' theatre production in Cheltenham later this year. During these events the audience could hear many of Clive's compositions and more performed by Clive himself and his guests, who helped to make the events special and unique. Each of the shows was a one-off event featuring an exclusive set-list and different performers. We are pleased to announce that a substantial amount of money was raised towards the September shows and we are now much closer to the final goal.
Clive: "The 'Alchemy' fundraisers have been the backbone of this whole project. The goal has been to put on a set of full theatrical performances in Cheltenham, UK. This is not a cheap venture, and raising finances has been an essential element. I can only thank all the people who have taken part in these little concerts… guests, audiences and hosts. Everyone has been so generous and supportive, and I am happy to say that the dream of 'Alchemy' on stage is now much closer. I think one or two more fundraisers in the summer should do it… that combined with the sponsors who again have been so generous with their faith in this show. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of this excellent journey… and as they say… the adventure continues!"
