'Maddie' opened at London's Lyric Theatre on September 29th 1997
- the musical which had been in development for nearly 8 years was based on the Jack Finney novel
'Marion's Wall' (adapted as the 1986 film 'Maxie') and featured music by
Stephen Keeling, lyrics by Shaun McKenna and book by McKenna and
Steven Dexter.
The musical tells the story of Nick and Jan Cheyney who have recently moved into a dilapidated attic apartment in downtown San Francisco. Beneath the peeling wallpaper, they are amazed to uncover a message scrawled in lipstick by 1920s dancer Madeline Marsh. Fascinated by the discovery, they are unprepared for the return of its ghostly author still desperate to become a movie star.
'Maddie' was developed during the prestigious Stephen Sondheim Masterclass at Oxford University in 1990. After numerous workshops and a further 11 drafts of the script; producer
Kenny Wax premiered 'Maddie' at the Salisbury Playhouse on September 5th
1996. After achieving critical acclaim in Salisbury, the production transferred to London's Lyric Theatre the following year starring
Graham Bickley, Summer Rognlie, Kevin Colson and Lynda Baron.
To mark the 20th anniversary of 'Maddie' premiering at the Salisbury Playhouse, Stage Door are pleased to present a 2 Disc Deluxe Edition presentation of the Original London Cast Album. Featuring 3 new 2016 recordings (performed by
Meredith Braun, Dominic Hodson, Moir Leslie and Alister Cameron) plus a bonus disc with
