Management students and featuring original music created by Electronic and Produced
Music students, Pieces of Us showcases the skills of students from across all three
Guildhall School faculties.
Throughout the creative process, students have been supported by acclaimed writer,
director and theatre maker Jude Christian, Artistic Associate at the Gate Theatre, and
Lizzie Donaghy and Debra Tidd, stage management advisors.
