This is our review of Julie Madly Deeply at Liverpool‘s Bombed Out Church. Now, this theatre show is part of Liverpool Theatre Festival 2022. So, let’s take a look at Julie Madly Deeply!
Synopsis Of Julie Madly Deeply
Adored by millions of fans, Dame Julie Andrews is a genuine showbusiness legend. This charming yet cheeky cabaret will look at her fame and fandom. And it comes through the eyes and voice of the award-winning Sarah-Louise Young (Fascinating Aida, An Evening Without Kate Bush).
Julie Andrews’ songs from musicals include Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, and My Fair Lady. These tunes intertwine with stories and anecdotes about Andrews’s life. This goes from her beginnings as a child star to the struggle of losing her famous singing voice. Furthermore, a delightfully funny and candid love letter emerges for a true show business survivor. Joining Sarah-Louise on piano is long-term collaborator Michael Roulston (Fascinating Aida, The Now Show).
Analysis Of Julie Madly Deeply
This show is a joy to behold. The work of Julie Andrews is timeless and garners new fans all the time. This is largely due to her roles in all-time classic movies, but also her many other projects, whether on the stage or on the small screen. This production covers everything that you would need to know about Julie whether you’re a longtime fan or an Andrews newbie.
I must also mention the amazing performance of Sarah-Louise Young. She is superb at covering Julie’s greatest songs at the highest possible notes, but also in playing other characters. (Liza Minnelli says hi!) Furthermore, Sarah frequently interacts with the audience, managing to effortlessly entertain while also revealing anecdotes and keeping the attendees at ease. From start to finish, she works so hard, and she receives a strong ovation to close the show. A special mention too to Michael Roulston who does a fantastic job on piano.
Summary Of Julie Madly Deeply
This show is a must-see if you love Julie Andrews or if you want to know more about her. No stone is left unturned in discussing every key moment of her life. And the performers go above and beyond in delivering a performance to remember. Amongst the plethora of shows at Liverpool Theatre Festival 2022, this one is amongst the very best.
