In Act One, Tell Me On A Sunday recounts the story of a British girl working, loving and getting her heart broken in New York. A superb sequence of songs in monologue and letter-form mirrors her reactions and emotions in an infinitely touching way. Variations, Act Two, is a pulsating cello-and-band new look at Paganini's much-varied Caprice, used as a choreographic profile of one of the men in the British girl's life.
