Lost Harmonies: The Search for Music
The Sweet Nothings • Student/Youth company
About The Sweet Nothings
The Sweet Nothings, described as Exeter's premier female and gender non-conforming a cappella group, perform this original musical theatre piece at the Upper Theatre (Thrust). Set in a world where music has been banned and all instruments destroyed, the show follows the group as they discover a hidden recording and embark on a journey to recreate lost harmonies using only their voices. The show runs for 50 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A story about the power of music told entirely through the human voice — no instruments, just harmony. The Sweet Nothings bring genuine warmth and conviction to a premise that is both playful and quietly moving.
