LUDWIG: Beethoven unleashed! His days numbered, relentlessly pounding the keyboard, knowing he will never hear his final creation, Ludwig stands up to the occasion, grabs the mic, and sets the record straight!

Fusing monodrama, melodrama, stand-up and virtuosic classical piano, raconteur, Mike Hatchard, is directed by West End, Broadway and Olivier winner, Guy Masterson.

Concert trained Hatchard plays both the music and the man (bearing a startling resemblance both in looks and character) revealing the tempestuousness, tenderness, frustrations, futility and humour.
