Ralph Court Gardens presents a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the loss of the great, unremittingly genteel, comedienne and monologist, Joyce Grenfell.
Choice Grenfell is a wonderful tribute featuring some of the best of Joyce’s hilarious songs and monologues from Stately as a Galleon and School Nativity Play to A Terrible Worrier and First Flight. Joyce is our guide for a delightful delve into some of her most endearing characters, ably accompanied by her trusted pianist William Blezard, musical director to Noël Coward and Marlene Dietrich as well as to Joyce Grenfell.
As Joyce would have said “We request the pleasure of your company''.
With Suzanne Walters as Joyce Grenfell and Andrew D Brewis as William Blezard.
"tremendously funny and totally on the ball" The Telegraph
“Andrew Brewis's practical musical prowess, as William Blezard, sitting at the keyboard is masterly. Suzanna Walters gives us the perfect Joyce, of fondest memory, with uncannily accurate facial expressions, movement and posture. Like Joyce herself, the diction is perfect.” Opening Night review
The production will be held in the marquee at Ralph Court Gardens. Tickets are available at the counter or online at ralphcourtgardens.co.uk. The restaurant opens at 5pm with the performance starting at 7pm.
