Here in Canada CBC ran it from 5PM - 7Pm eastern time so it has just concluded.
It is enjoyable but the material has never been quite as strong as the premise might suggest. Still, it's fine and Carol is wonderful as the Queen.
Enjoy!
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

re: 'Once Upon a Mattress' Time#45
Posted: 12/18/05 at 7:23pmThis really is fabulous. I mean, if I didn't know the musical I'd be like "Oh.. dear.. GOD"... but this is just amazing. I love it.

I don't know the musical.
To be honest, when it isn't Denis (whom I usually do not like) and Carol, I am bored.
But Tracy was exciting for the first 5 mins - then the song got old.
We'll see!
