Sweet Charity
by Dorothy Fields, Federico Fellini, Cy Coleman, Neil Simon, Tullio Pinelli, Ennio Flaiano

We are excited to be returning to Theatr Clwyd and will stage this fantastic musical in The Mix for five performances.

Hapless but unflappable Charity Hope Valentine desperately seeks love in New York City in the 1960s. In this exuberant, groovy, hilarious musical comedy, Charity tries again and again to find her dream and make something of herself.

Inspired by Federico Fellini's Nights of Cabiria, Sweet Charity explores the turbulent love life of Charity Hope Valentine, a hopelessly romantic but comically unfortunate dance hall hostess in New York City. With a tuneful, groovy, mid-1960s score by Cy Coleman, sparkling lyrics by Dorothy Fields, and a hilarious book by Neil Simon, Sweet Charity captures all the energy, humor, and heartbreak of Life in the Big City for an unfortunate but irrepressible optimist. We proudly license the original 1966 Broadway version of Sweet Charity. Musical numbers include: “Big Spender,” “If My Friends Could See Me Now,” “I’m a Brass Band” and “Baby, Dream Your Dream.”

Auditions will be on Sunday 4th February. Full details will be announced soon but mark the date in your diaries for now.

Singing rehearsals will start week coimmencing 4th March with a full schedule from 8th April
