Ellie Nunn presented an all-Sondheim cabaret at the Crazy Coqs in London's Piccadilly Circus on 27 October 2022. With Musical Director Stephen Gage. Filmed and edited by Ian Bowkett.
Here she is boys, Here she is world… the concert no one asked for, it’s Ellie Nunn sings Sondheim at People! An entire evening dedicated to Ellie’s love of the big man himself: the one and only, Mr Stephen Sondheim.
Join Ellie Nunn for an evening of songs and stories celebrating this absolute powerhouse of musical theatre (Sondheim, not Ellie), the keenest observer of human nature in existence (sorry Shakespeare)… and it’s all cobbled together by one hapless romantic with too much time on her hands, a tendency to speak in the third person, and a lot of love to give where Stephen is concerned…
There won’t be trumpets… there may be sock puppets…
