Small Signs<br />

Small signs light my way<br />

Enveloped in your mist<br />

All life ends today<br />

The object of our tryst<br />

Heartbeats pull me forward<br />

Your desire tells me so<br />

Steel love holds me tightly<br />

Inner screaming rises, no.<br />

You smile, you grasp me tightly<br />

You press it to my hand<br />

I hear you say ‘I love you’<br />

My heart, it turns to sand<br />

Cold heat against my temple<br />

I hold my promise against yours<br />

I know you’ll hold our bargain<br />

We’re on a different course<br />

Arena Theatre return in July and August with this intriguing and completely unique<br />

musical which explores the five year relationship between rising novelist, Jamie, and<br />

struggling actress, Cathy. What makes this musical so special is that Cathy’s story is<br />

told in reverse chronological order and Jamie’s is told in chronological order. With a<br />

heady mix of musical styles, from pop and jazz through to Latin, Folk and The Blues,<br />

this riveting modern musical masterpiece will appeal to all.<br />

Presently we will be playing at Forest Arts Centre, New Milton / The Shelley Theatre,<br />

Bournemouth / The Mowlem Theatre, Swanage.<br />

If you know of any venue in Weymouth / Dorchester who would take us then we would<br />

love to know.<br />

I feel your muscles stiffen<br />

Time slows, death takes my hand<br />

But I leave you, unforgiven<br />

I fall, alone, you stand.<br />
