Here’s a trailer for the special streaming event:
Said Ray Davies in a statement:
“The Moneygoround’ is a one-man show documenting a character facing the challenging circumstances of making an album under extreme pressure. This play, similar to a psychodrama, follows the ups and downs of the character as he plays out events in his life. He confronts the dark forces surrounding him after falling into an emotional and financial “hole” eventually he is saved by a song after confiding in his friend, Lola.”
More on the show:
This unique audio-visual production has been intimately filmed with the Actor Ben Norris as the leading Character – https://bennorris.net. The presentation will also feature video content inserts of archive footage. The whole show will also include the “Any Time 2020” lyric video, the “Lola” Unboxing Video, and the “Lola” lyric video.
