Our Review:
12 September 2012
In the heart of Wimbledon you’ll find Harry Warner and Al Dubin’s legendary Broadway musical 42nd Street tapping to showbiz success for a limited time only (11-15 September).
The American export tells the tale of small town girl, Peggy Sawyer, who dreams of being a Broadway star in the new Julian Marsh production of Pretty Lady. Although an original chorus dancer, veteran star Dorothy Brock’s unfortunate ankle accident turns into Peggy’s opportune moment to dazzle audiences with her goofy charm.
Taking centre stage are Dave Willetts as Julian Marsh, Marti Webb as Dorothy Brock and Jessica Punch as Peggy Sawyer. Supporting them are a cast of lovely girls and boys spanning several generations but all display stunning footwork and authentic Hollywood glamour (slightly marred by transatlantic accents) in equal measure.
