'Beautiful
and Damned' is an evocative and glittering musical based on the extraordinary
lives of Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald. He's a successful, young author and
she's the stylish, young wife. Outrageously glamorous and fashionable, they
created their own world of enchantment and became the envy of all with their
high-spending and high-living lifestyle.
Scott christened the period The Jazz Age, and Zelda lived it. But behind the
glittering facade lay a tragedy of epic proportions.
The original, inspirational songs on this unique disc, written and performed by
two of the world's greatest songwriters, Les Reed and Roger Cook, secured
multi-million pound funding for Beautiful and Damned, a full-blown, glittering
Art Deco musical extravaganza.
Initially starring John Barrowman at the Yvonne Arnaud theatre, 'Beautiful and
Damned' transferred to The Lyric, where it starred Michael Praed and
Helen Anker.
As bonus tracks - the album concludes with three exclusive recordings from the
London cast featuring Michael Praed and Helen Anker, recorded live at the
Lyric
Theatre.
