Porteriana: "WAKE UP AND DREAM" (Pavilion Theatre, London)

Speranza

What is this thing called love?"

Cochran had been successful in hiring the Americans Rodgers and Hart for his 1927 London Pavilion Revue (One dam thing after another) (1927).

Now he tried Porter, with similarly succesful results.

The New York production of "Wake up and dream" did not do quite as well, hampered by the stock market crash and competition from Porter's just-opened hit FIFTY MLLION FRENCHMEN.
