Rosemary Squires teams up with her Musical Director
Brian Dee and his Music to recapture what many regard as
the golden years of popular entertainment. ‘Those were
the Days’ is just that.
In many
ways the show is a sequel to their acclaimed ‘Life is A
Song’ and retains favourite numbers from Doris Day, Ella
Fitzgerald, Roy Castle, Matt Monro and other household
names.
Rosemary, often referred to as ‘First Lady of Song’,
‘Britain’s Doris Day’ and even ‘Queen of the Jingles’
(remember ‘Hands that do dishes’?), is in sparkling form
as she and Brian Dee produce two hours of great music
and fun.
‘Nostalgia has a future,’ she quips, and while ‘Those
were the Days’ is the perfect matinee show, it is also a
treat for families and a voyage of discovery for those
of more tender years.
