About this show
In this masterclass in storytelling, award-winning performer Michael Burdett recounts the astonishing tale of how he stumbled upon a long-lost recording by legendary singer songwriter Nick Drake and shared it with strangers across the UK. The discovery of the tape was remarkable enough on its own. But the story takes an even more unbelievable turn in this new show when, against all odds, Burdett uncovers a second lost Nick Drake recording. Love coincidences? Then this is for you. Features on-screen revelations from James Acaster, Paul Whitehouse and others.
