Our Take

Finally, a compilation album that will transport you back to a time when the West End was bustling with unknown gems and hidden treasures. "Rare London Musicals Of The 50s" is a delightful journey through the forgotten archives of British musical theatre, curated with love and care.

The opening track, a rousing number from the never-before-heard production "Bloody Good Show, Innit?", sets the stage for what's to come. The raw charm and unpolished vocals of the cast transport you to a time when musicals were not about slick choreography and auto-tuned perfection, but about raw emotion and genuine storytelling.

Tracks like "Tea and Crumpets: A Love Story" and "The Chippy Chronicles" offer a glimpse into the quirky and eccentric world of 1950s London, with their witty lyrics and catchy melodies. The standout moment comes towards the end with "The Tube Tango", a cheeky ode to the London Underground that will have you tapping your feet and laughing out loud.

Overall, "Rare London Musicals Of The 50s" is a delightful collection of hidden gems that will appeal to both musical theatre aficionados and casual listeners alike. So grab a cup of tea, put on your dancing shoes, and let yourself be transported to a bygone era of British musical theatre magic. Cheers, darling!
