Lock Up Your Daughters

Lock Up YOur Daughters

(Bart/Johnson) (RNBW010)

Original London Cast recording with Richard Wordsworth, Hy Hazell, Stephanie Voss, Terrence Cooper. First time on CD. With bonus tracks sung by composer Lionel Bart. Adapted by Bernard Miles from Henry Fielding’s 1730 London comedy ‘Rape Upon Rape’, about a corrupt magistrate, his deliciously ribald wife, and two young boisterous lovers, the bawdy tale proved to be ideal material for Lionel Bart’s first West End hit. With music by film composer Laurie Johnson.

“… rip-roaring musical comedy… four standout numbers…”
Steven Suskin, Playbill Online

“… melodious and witty, a perfect fit for the ribald tale.”
Max Preeo, Show Music

“… a bawdy romp set in 18th Century London, decked out with attractive songs and fine performances.”
Terry Wardrope, Masquerade
