The
Pajama
Game
opened
in
London
at
the
Coliseum
on
13
October
1955
and
ran
for
588
performances
-
an
undoubted
hit.
On
Broadway
it
had
opened
in
May
the
previous
year
where
its
run
there
was
almost
double
that
of
London's.
Unlike
many
of
the
Broadway
transfers
of
the
period
it
did
not
import
American
stars
but
was
cast
with
performers
well
known
in
Britain.
Joy
Nichols
and
Edmund
Hockridge,
Australian
and
Canadian
respectively,
led
a
company
that
also
starred
the
great
Max
Wall
in
a
rare
outing
to
the
musical
stage,
and
Elizabeth
Seal
who
three
years
later
would
find
stardom
playing
the
lead
role
in
Irma
La
Douce.
Featuring
a
strong
cast
and
many
fine
songs
that
have
become
standards
-
Hernando's
Hideaway,
A
New
Town
Is
A
Blue
Town
and
the
show-stopper
Hey
There,
London
embraced
the
show
and
the
Queen
Mother
saw
the
show
five
times
during
its
run.
Both
versions
of
Hey
There,
performed
by
Edmund
Hockridge
and
the
other
by
Joy
Nichols
are
heard
on
this
CD
and
Ted's
version
lives
on
for
it
was
recently
featured
in
an
episode
of
"The
Street"
starring
Jim
Broadbent
on
the
BBC
TV
channel.
Our
bonus
tracks
are
a
tribute
to
Joy
Nichols.
She
had
found
fame
in
Britain
in
the
early
post-war
years
in
the
long-running
radio
series
Take
It
From
Here
which
co-starred
Jimmy
Edwards
and
Dick
Bentley.
Her
wonderful
comic
timing
and
fine
singing
voice
is
revealed
on
this
CD.
On
the
ten
bonus
tracks
she
can
be
heard
on
her
own
as
well
as
with
radio
co-stars
Jimmy
Edwards
and
Dick
Bentley
and
with
another
wireless
favourite
Benny
Lee.
