Celebrating Peter Pears on his birthday, Dr Nicholas Clark, librarian of The Red House Archive, gave an insightful talk about the life and work of the co-founder of the Aldeburgh Festival and one of its most celebrated artistic figures.

Founding a Festival talk to a packed Jubilee Hall in Aldeburgh @NicholasClarkBB was perfection.

Our Britten Pears Arts supporters enjoyed afternoon tea in The Red House Garden. A delightful mix of nature, knowledge and delicious food, we enjoyed a fascinating garden talk and afternoon tea in the gorgeous garden of
The @redhouse_alde.

We enjoyed a fascinating exploration of Aldeburgh today, in the engaging and expert company of Dr Christopher Hilton (@CHilton_BB), taking in the town as Britten and Pears found and shaped it.
A great afternoon’s entertainment from start to finish with the wonderful Tom Carradine’s Music Hall Songbook. He got us all singing and laughing! @tomcarradine @TheatreAtTabard This looks good: eventbrite.co.uk/e/tom-carra…

Many thanks for coming, @SimoneMcIntyre !🙏🥂
Wonderful show today @thejclarkson & @Tim_McArthur excellent performances in Turning The Screw at the new @KingsHeadThtr 🎉🎉🎉
Or perhaps turn a 1970s sit com into a musical? To the manor born - the musical? Porridge- the musical. The opening song could be “Born free …. ‘Til somebody caught me’ 🎶 🎵 Watch out for the auditions @k2prodltd
We think that our next show might be a Disney classic remake. Maybe be Cinderella? With the cast members from Coronation St and East Enders. Finalist from Big Brother and Strictly complete the line up. It will be a smash hit. @k2prodltd
Turning the screw. Our fantastic cast give their final performance at 3pm today. Friends who saw the play wondered why there aren’t queues for returns! #TTS @tushaw @TheLiamWatson @siwillmont @JoWickham @thejclarkson @KingsHeadThtr @k2prodlt #benjaminbritten #peterpears #Hemmings

From Elgar to Elton John: as if there weren’t enough composer biopics on stage and screen, not one but two new plays about Benjamin Britten are now up and running. (Neither - mercifully - are musicals.)
So what’s the key to a decent musical bio-drama?
