For the first time this dazzling 1930s star of musical comedy tells her own story in her own words. Sweeping us from London’s East End to the bright lights of Broadway, her rags to riches story is packed with witty dialogue and bursting with well-loved songs, from Noel Coward to Kurt Weill.

Gertrude Lawrence: A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening is a theatrical cabaret performed by Lucy Stevens who embodies the spirit of Gertie: a feisty, strong woman who transcended the class ceiling, forging her stage and screen career into her 50s.

Produced by Astor Theatre.
