PERFORMANCE DETAIL

World premiere was held in 1982 in London, and since the musical lasted only an hour, it was staged along with another composer’s work from 1979, which was a vinyl album called Variations by composer’s brother Julian. It was the theme of Paganini but for cello. On the stage, the music was accompanied by a ballet.
 
As the librettist of Tell Me on a Sunday, Andrew Lloyd Webber chose an experienced librettist Donn Black, with whom he worked on the famous Sunset Boulevard ten years later. An hour-long recital about the young Englishwomen finding her own way was originally written for Maria Webb. In the new millennium, in 2003, Tell Me on a Sunday was staged in London again. This time, it was an adjusted, stand-alone version. And this is the version for which we obtained the licence to perform next season at the Theatre “12” with Hana Fialová. New texts and adjustment of the Czech libretto will be provided by the prominent translator of Lloyd Webber’s musicals Michael Prostějovský. It is the opportunity for Hana Fialová to introduce a very intimate story to the Ostrava audience.
