About this listen

There is no shortage of humour in Broadway, Jeeves?, an elegantly observed journal of a year in the life of the musical play by Jeeves, written and directed by Sir Alan Ayckbourn and composed by Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, in which Jarvis starred in America.

Beginning in January 2001, the listener can enjoy a detailed account of this acclaimed production as it moves from Pittsburgh to Toronto to....Will it ever get to Broadway?

The answer to the titular question is ... "just a splash". The actor's experience of a show's journey to Broadway, and his first appearance their, told as low-key anecdote of uncertainty and mild disappointment. Jarvis has such a career connection with Wodehouse, and broad experience of theatre, I hoped for more insights. He conveys Lloyd Weber's aloofness and the faint cruelty of Broadway economics, but little more. Ho hum.

light, pleasant, mildly interesting, not funny
