Half a Sixpence now open to rave reviews at the Noel Coward Theatre!
This new stage version of Half a Sixpence, the musical adaptation of H.G. Wells's semi- autobiographical novel 'Kipps: The Story of a Simple Soul', is a completely fresh adaptation which reunites book-writer Julian Fellowes with George Stiles and Anthony Drewe. The score is inspired by and features several of composer David Heneker's exhilarating songs from the original production, including 'Flash Bang Wallop', 'Money To Burn' and 'Half A Sixpence'. The production transfers to London's West End following a run at the Chichester Festival Theatre.
Arthur Kipps, an orphan and over-worked draper's assistant at the turn of the last century, unexpectedly inherits a fortune that propels him into high society. His childhood companion, Ann Pornick, watches with dismay as Arthur is made over in a new image by the beautiful and classy Helen Walsingham. Both young women undoubtedly love Arthur - but which of them should he listen to? With the help of his friends, Arthur learns that if you want to have the chance of living the right life, you need to make the right choices.

Me empecé a ver Half a Sixpence sin saber mucho salvo que Tommy Steele había estado en la producción original de 1963 (fue una de las últimas producciones británicas en llegar a Broadway antes del dominio de Andrew Lloyd Webber en los años 70-80) y mi novio me había cantado la canción principal. Como historia, es un relato de la pobreza a la riqueza sobre el valor del dinero, la clase y el amor.
