MusicalTalk's Thos Ribbits saw the press night of Stephen Sondheim's Saturday Night at the Jermyn Street Theatre - and here's what he had to say:

[I]"Primavera's excellent production of Saturday Night is an entertaining gem of a show. Helena Blackman and David Ricardo-Pearce grab your attention from the start and never let go, pulling at your heart strings all the way, whilst the rest of the cast effortlessly charm with humour. All this and wonderful music! Intimate Sondheim as it should be done - catch it whilst you can"[/I]


Saturday Night: 10th Feb - 14th Mar 2009 at the Jermyn Street Theatre, Piccadilly Circus

Starring HELENA BLACKMAN (runner-up of How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?)

It’s Saturday night in New York, and five single friends decide to shake up their lifestyle and hit the town. Captivated by glamorous heiress Helene and New York’s glittering social scene, Gene is determined to break into high society by disguising himself as a millionaire. But Helene has secrets of her own…

Stephen Sondheim’s first musical is a dazzling comedy full of soaring ballads, fizzing choreography and laugh-out-loud lyrics - a celebration of youth, romance and friendship in the city that never sleeps
