⭐ RUMOUR – BETTY BLUE EYES – OFF-WEST END REVIVAL PLANNED ⭐
A new Off-West End revival of Betty Blue Eyes is reportedly in the works, it has been rumoured.
Originally produced in the West End by Cameron Mackintosh, it’s fair shares for all in Alan Bennett’s take on Austerity Britain, but Gilbert and Joyce Chilvers are still struggling to bring home the bacon.
The only light on the horizon is a private function to celebrate the forthcoming marriage of Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip. When their invitation fails to arrive, Gilbert and Joyce resolve to get their share of the banquet’s illegal pork roast!
Betty Blue Eyes was nominated for the Olivier Award’s Best New Musical in 2011.
Betty Blue Eyes has music by George Stiles, with lyrics by Anthony Drewe. Based on the 1984 film A Private Function, the book was written for the stage by Ron Cowen and Daniel Lipman, adapted from Alan Bennett’s original screenplay.
I would love a new production of this! ! !
