The only CD release of the favourite Musical in an Original Cast Recording of the Chichester Festival Theatre production

This highly successful stage adaptation of the Posthumous Papers Of The Pickwick Club by the Internationally known, literary great, Charles Dickens, was also a career highpoint for Leslie Bricusse, wherein his lyrics are accompanied by the book of Wolf Mankowitz and the music of Cyril Ornadel. These conjoined talents, and those of an all star cast including Harry Seacombe, Ruth Madoc (Hi-De-Hi), Glyn Houston and the late Roy Castle, gave the Chichester Festival it's all time most successful production, when the piece was revived in 1993.30 years earlier, the show had made Sir Harry Seacombe a household name when it became the must see show of the West End, giving him his biggest hit and a song that remained associated with him for the rest of his life - If I Ruled The World.The show remains much loved by the general public and was sadly to be the swan song of two of Britain's much loved talents Sir Harry Seacombe and Roy Castle.
