The Curious Case of Benjamin Button the Musical on CD

Under the light of a full moon, something most curious occurs. Benjamin Button is born old. Bound to the fate of growing younger each day, Benjamin wants nothing more than to live a little life. But will he ever find a place to belong? With a breathtaking soundtrack brought to life by an extraordinary actor-musician ensemble, F. Scott Fitzgerald's iconic short story is relocated to a fishing village on the north coast of Cornwall by writing team Jethro Compton and Darren Clark. Winning three 2025 Olivier Awards for Best New Musical, Outstanding Musical Contribution (Darren Clark and Mark Aspinall), and Best Actor in a Musical (John Dagleish), the 14-strong cast of actor-musicians playing 30 instruments perform "MIRACLES OF DEXTERITY ON STAGE" (The Times) - bringing to life a heart-burstingly, magical tale of a love that defies all odds. From Darren Clark: "These songs have then been brought to life by an awe-inspiring company of actor musicians who put their heart and soul into every lyric and note of this score."
