LONDON<br />
THEATRE<br />
LAND<br />
* NEW LISTING *<br />
Tell Me On a Sunday is a show that charts the course of an<br />
English girl newly arrived in New York. Brimming with optimism,<br />
she sets out to find success, companionship and love. But as she<br />
weaves her way through the maze of the city and her own anxieties,<br />
frustrations and heartaches she begins to wonder whether - in fact<br />
- she’s been looking for love in all the wrong places.<br />
Marti Webb will perform the original production of Andrew Lloyd<br />
Webber and Don Black’s classic, for which she received huge critical<br />
acclaim. Tell Me On a Sunday was originally performed as an<br />
album and then a TV special and later on stage as one half of Song<br />
& Dance. The album Tell Me on a Sunday reached Number One<br />
in the charts and the single Take That Look Off Your Face reached<br />
