Part fairy tale, part vaudeville routine, part old-fashioned love story, Countries Shaped Like Stars is a musical tale of love heard best through a tin-can telephone. It is the story of Gwendolyn Magnificent and Bartholomew Spectacular; and it begins with demanding dragon fruits and ends with heartache whispered into the ears of birds and constellations. With spoons, water glasses, whirly-winds and a mandolin, our two heroes create the sounds and images of a landscape forever altered by regret.

This is the show that the Decemberists would create if they pursued theatre on a break from touring as a band, and if they got Roald Dahl to direct them.” – Amy Salloway, writer/performer
