More Fabulous Flops

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

3/4. Celebrating the best and worst of musical theatre, with the focus on Broadway. This week's theme centres on God: cringe at In My Life, a show about a boy with Tourette's in which God appears as a jingle writer; disbelieve in Fire Angel, Ray Cooney 's musical based on The Merchant of Venice; cover your ears at Wilde, the Mike Read flop that crashed and burned; and delight in the look at
Stephen Sondheim , the God of musicals, the genius composer who just can't get a hit on Broadway. Producer Elizabeth Freestone
