Listened to the recording, its a weird recording and kinda sounds life less. Does anyone know who Libby Morris is ?? She plays Rose. I tried to find some information about her online but cant find much. Thanks :)

I've never heard the recording (I'd love to), but I did hear her sing a huge chunk of the score on a Jule Styne tribute concert CD once. Nice voice. Not sure what else she's done.

Does anyone know if they will make (or have made) a recording of Caroline O'Conner's performance in London?

I don't think they are. Probably just have to settle for bootlegs. She sounds terrific from what I've heard.

Ugh. I wanted a recording!

Yeah. Would have been nice, but it was such a small, limited run production. I never expected it to. Just glad the UK finally got a decent production of the show again. If I'm not mistaken, they hadn't seen a good production of it since Angela Lansbury's production.

She does, I wish a cast recording was made

Hopefully she will reprise the role on the west end

OH MY WORD, CAROLINE. She sounds amazing. Better than some of the Broadway Rose's!

The production was not actually in London, it was in Leicester, and it was incredible - O'Connor is surely a Rose for the ages and I've no doubt she'll play the role again.

I've heard Morris' Rose described as a combination of Merman and Lansbury, but I'd also throw Kay Medford into the mix. Some of her readings are odd/funny and there are a few sour notes.

Bonnie Langford is even more enjoyable on this version.

To the OP: If you google image Libby Morris, the fourth picture is a scan of her program bio.

It's a fun recording. I like her "Rose's Turn" a lot.
