Review from Evening Standard:
Speedy Me and My Girl at the Palladium
By John Aizlewood
The idea itself — equal parts bonkers and inspiring — could almost make a musical.
Take one beloved musical, audition more than 800 would-be stars and give the winners six weeks to learn the script.
Then book them into Theatreland’s most prestigious billing: Sunday night at the London Palladium, for a one-off, never-to-be-repeated performance.
The catch? Give the 150-strong all-volunteer cast and crew just 48 hours before last night’s show time to put the entire three-hour caboodle together — from choreography and lighting to set-building and costumes.
Then, give the proceeds — hopefully more than the £20,000 the British Heart Foundation received when the same concept was applied to Sweet Charity at the Theatre Royal in 2006 — to bone marrow charity the Anthony Nolan Trust.
