3 SWEET CHARITY CREATIVE TEAM Director & Choreographer David Mallabone Musical Director Paul Garner CTC s Goodnight Mister Tom CTC s Les Misérables School Edition OFFICIAL OVERVIEW Sweet Charity follows the always poignant and often-funny misadventures in love encountered by the gullible and guileless Charity Hope Valentine, the ever-hopeful taxi dancer who consistently gives both her heart and her earnings to the wrong man. Charity sings, dances and cries her way through a series of brief romances until she finds herself stuck in a lift with the shy, nervous Oscar Lindquist. Has Charity finally found her match? Assistant Director Samantha Billing Produced by Louis Ling for Cambridge Theatre Company The show sparkles with an iconic score by Cy Coleman and witty lyrics by Dorothy Fields and features musical standards The Rhythm of Life, If My Friends Could See Me Now and the unforgettable Big Spender. Join Cambridge Theatre Company for Sweet Charity, a classic musical in every sense of the word, and spend a little time with Charity. 2
4 DIRECTOR S VISION David Mallabone, Director I choreographed my first full production 24 years ago and in that time I have choreographed or directed a variety of classic musicals such as Guys and Dolls, My Fair Lady, Pippin and most recently, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert for CTC. But in all this time I have never revisited a show. Until now. I first choreographed a production of Sweet Charity ten years ago. The score is stunning and from the iconic opening bars of the overture, which trumpet the unmistakable introduction to Big Spender, the music is at the heart of this show. However, it is easy to underestimate the power of the story. The tale of Charity Hope Valentine, based on Fellini s screenplay Nights of Cabiria, is by turns funny, poignant, joyous and heart-breaking. Through it all, Charity never loses her optimism and, whilst the audience can marvel at her hope in the face of terrible adversity, she never loses sight of that better future. I would like this CTC production of Sweet Charity to really pull at the heartstrings of the audience and emphasise the juxtaposition between Charity s situation and her almost eternal optimism. But I want us to show Charity s humanity and vulnerability for me, she is not just a simple fool, which is an easy way to play her, but one of life s good guys who always tries to see the best in people and in her situation. Often at her own expense. Those who have worked with me before will know my devotion to the work of Bob Fosse. For me, Fosse s Rich Man s Frug from the film version remains one of the most sublime pieces of musical theatre choreography it is possible to witness. So my vision is that we can pay homage to the work of Fosse whilst producing our own take on some of the best songs in musical theatre. Big Spender provides an exciting challenge for any musical theatre performer. There s Got To Be Something Better Than This is fizzing with life and energy, Big Spender is a musical piece of sardonic overview of the dance hall business and The Rhythm of Life is a tour-de-force for ensemble singing and staging. Ultimately, I want the audience of CTC s Sweet Charity to leave the theatre having cheered, laughed and cried with Charity Hope Valentine. 3
