Production details
Specially written for the Arts Theatre by local playwright Campbell Kay, this 'all-new', 'all-singing', 'all-dancing' 1920's musical revue recaptures those halcyon days when hair was bobbed, flappers were unflappable and sizzling syncopation was the sound track of life. Featured as part of the programme is the world premier of the musical comedy 'Anyone for Tennis' which recounts the romantic tale of how Lydia Lovebody finds life long happiness with Nicky Pinkerton, a young man of great wealth but little intellect. With music by Richard Rodgers, Noel Coward and Cole Porter, it remains a mystery why this show was never produced in the era for which it was so clearly intended.
