Kismet

 

 

'Kismet' was performed at the Whitehorse Centre from the 2nd - 17th of June 2000.  It is a colourful, vibrant and exciting musical set in 11th century Baghdad.  Though the score is based on music written by the 19th Century Russian composer, Aleksander Borodin, Robert Wright and Charles Forrest have combined to produce comic songs, ballads, dance tunes, an ornate quartet and a beautiful love duet.
