The Living Record Collection and Soho Theatre • Professional company

90 minutes•The Dissection Room
Neutral Milk Hotel's indie-rock triumph In the Aeroplane Over the Sea and Anne Frank's stunning and candid The Diary of a Young Girl fuse with confessions from Salty's adolescent longings in this genre-defying cabaret with wit, spectacle and heart. Sparks fly, time bends, and the ghosts of our past return to us in this hilarious and devastating work from Salty's acclaimed and expansive Living Record Collection. 'Astounding' ***** (Stage). ***** (List). 'A storyteller in total command of voice, a cocked eyebrow and his audience' **** (Guardian).
