Premiered at London's Theatre Royal Stratford East before a run at the Apollo Theatre in London's West End this boistorous good natured musical focuses on the loves and lives of some of the first West Indian immigrants to arrive in London onboard the Windrush. With an introduction by Philip Hedley artistic director of Theatre Royal Stratford East. . Paul Sirett's witty book and lyrics and Paul Joseph's infectiously upbeat score - which embraces jazz soul calypso and blues - pluck situations from Shakespeare's comedy and transplant them into the initially incongruous setting of 1950s London. Four newly-arrived male friends make a pledge to give up wine and women for three years while they work to better themselves. But aided by a sprite-like trickster who combines aspects of Puck Autolycus and Eros four sassy and sexy dames in their boarding house have other plans for the guys.
