A musical comedy written by the duo Flo and Joan performed by George Fouracres renowned for Hamlet, at the Globe, HBO’s The Francise as “the man” and Flo and Joan “The band “: Live at the Apollo.
This satirical and comedic look at the ‘life story’ you could say of a gentleman who has made his name in musical theatre, an “icon of the theatre musical world” a man we all know or do we! The One Man Musical opens pandora’s box of glitz, and glamour with the highs the lows to the ridiculous.
With each musical comes a story and yet his own aka Andrew Lloyd Webber’s is yet to be told. Intro please… Flo and Joan, then you meet George with dialogue of life as himself a fictional Andrew Lloyd Webber you could say. George is everything you would expect from a theatrical performer witty, and he sheds light on the not so well-known character ‘Andy! ‘.
The music is memorable, and the lyrics compliment the stage presence of George Fouracre’s veracious performance of this character, makes it, he is excellent in it. Simple staging but it’s the people who made it.
Lots of insider laughs and improvisation seen which added to the performance always good to see people having fun and moving with the audience reactions.
Flo and Joan certainly know what they are doing, this show is intelligent witty and very entertaining. This was a sold-out show which is telling, its musical references and tone resonated with the musical lovers in the audience. From the entrendres to the iconic stage presence musical theatre royalty, Phantom, Aspects of Love, Cinderella ah maybe not Cinderella.
This view of life in ANDY’s world was not expected but better be prepared to laugh flinch and be entertained. The duo plus one, Flo, Joan and George melt away and It was joyous and a little bit wow too!
Playing until 2nd March, https://underbellyboulevard.com/tickets/one-man-musical/
