Continuing Stage Door's 'Cast Album Masters Series' is the CD debut of the 'Edith Piaf, Je Vous Aime..." Original 1977 London Cast Recording. Devised by Canadian performer
Libby Morris, 'Edith Piaf, Je Vous Aime...' was a musical revue based around the songs of
the legendary French chanteuse. Sung primarily in English, the
production featured lyrics specially adapted by American lyricist and poet
Fran Landesman (with additional lyrics by Peter Reeves and Ronnie Bridges). Morris, a musical theatre veteran whose credits include
'Gypsy', 'Mame' and 'As Dorothy Parker Parker Once Said' (an original London revue written for her by Sandy Wilson), was inspired to write and produce the revue after seeing Piaf perform on
stage in the 1950s. |
