Queerguru is so happy to be able to bring you the very first glimpse of the highly anticipated new musical LOVE GODDESS, THE RITA HAYWORTH MUSICAL which will have its World Premiere in London next month. The track below “Rita Who” is sung by Almog Pail the show’s star and co-creator
Crowned the “Love Goddess” by her adoring fans, Rita Hayworth thrilled studio executives, servicemen, and movie audiences alike, generating big box office in 1940s/50s Hollywood. Yet she struggled to identify with the bombshell image projected of her, marrying and divorcing five different men in her search for a partner who loved her for who she truly was. As Hayworth’s story unfolds, we meet Orson Welles, Fred Astaire, Harry Cohn and other extraordinary figures in her life, all presented through the fractured prism of her deteriorating memory due to a then-unknown cause: Alzheimer’s.
LOVE GODDESS will run from 18 Nov to 23rd December The Cockpit Theatre, London
N.B. Queerguru Contributing Editor Andrew Hebden will be in the audience on the First Night: look out for his Review
