I'll give you a pound for every Von Trapp child you can hit on the forehead with a Malteaser...
Fact of the day:
Sir Findo worked on 'Singing In The Rain' at the Palladium in the early 90s
Remember seeing it at the cinema as part of my 21st birthday celebrations - circa 1966!
I love Christopher Plumber so much in the film that I fear this stage version may be a let down.....
So come on then, was it any good and how much do I owe you?
It was very much as expected, how could it be otherwise as it was similar although not identical to the film version. If I were treating the family to a West End show, this wouldn't have been in my top 3 choices but it was a Spaceman family outing organized and paid for by his parents.
Connie Fisher was very good but overshadowed I thought by Lesley Garrett (Mother Abbess) who had the edge with the singing. It must be noted that IMO neither of them could act very well which would be about right as they are singers.
If you get the chance, go and see it....
SFG: You owe me a fiver. I got Leisel, Kurt, Briggitta, Louisa and Gretel. I also think bonus cash should be awarded because I got Rolf when wearing his Hitler Youth outfit.....
