Romance!
Play by John Spurling, with music and lyrics by Charles Ross.
“The new London musical ROMANCE! at the Duke of York’s Theatre is ideal entertainment for those who have been warned by their doctor not to unduly excite themselves. It is quite the most peculiar and fragile musical entertainment to land in the West End for many a year. It has all the throbbing vitality of, say, a tea-dance in pre-war Cheltenham.” – Arthur Thirkell, Daily Mirror 29th September 1971 (page 18)
The West End run was withdrawn after five days.
