"Bill Snibson, a Lambeth costermonger, is revealed to be the new Earl of Hareford and his newly-discovered artistocratic relations are horrified. Bringing him to Hareford Hall, they attempt to educate Bill into the ways of the gentry and to separate him from his cockney girlfriend Sally"--
ME AND MY GIRL was one of my favorite musicals of the late 80s. So much fun.
Revisiting it in 2021, the book is thin, the music is swell, and the musical moves forward based on the talents of its Bill. I never saw Robert Lindsey, but saw Tim Curry in the first national tour and later James Brennan at the Colonial in Boston.
I truly enjoyed listening to its score again. It had been a long time!!
