The
song and dance musical Tell Me On A Sunday will soon be entertaining
Staffordshire audiences. Rather ironically, not on a Sunday!
This one-woman tour de force sees its original star, Marti Webb, reprising
her award-winning role.
The musical was originally written in 1979 especially for Marti by
Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black as a television special.
Number Ones
The subsequent album and the single Take That Look Off Your Face
both reached number one in the UK charts.
Off the back of this, a stage production opened in London in 1982
and the musical soon went on to Broadway.
An
English woman in New York Tell Me On A Sunday is the story of one woman's quest to make
it in America.

she makes it big!
Harsh reality
However, after a series of heartaches and disappointments, harsh reality
sets in that maybe she's been looking for love and acceptance in all
the wrong places...
