Engaging one man show about Vincent van Gogh. Daniel Anderson is a gifted actor and singer playing part of Vincent with well chosen musical accompaniment by pianist, Germaine Gamient. Beautifully sung songs with a clear story and well worth 55 mins of your time in a busy schedule.

Had the opportunity to see this show yesterday and can only rate this production as superb, from the brilliant performance by Daniel Anderson accomplished by the pianist Germain Gamiet and the artistic direction of Amanda Bothma this is a show not to be missed.

Like its sister show Judy Garland, this was a really enjoyable hour listening to a fascinating narrative, giving so much more detail about van Gogh’s life than most people probably know, so beautifully told and interspersed with wonderful songs, sung with real pleasure. Another beautiful little show
