CHARLOTTE CORNWELL

CHARLOTTE CORNWELL is currently starring in the musical THE LADY IN THE DARK at THE LYTTELTON THEATRE in England until June 28, 1997. For more information on this show, check out The Royal National Theatre (UK) Page.

For the past couple of weeks I've been searching in vain for a photo of CHARLOTTE CORNWELL. I've net searched every project I've listed here to no avail. I did however come across something rather unexpected when I net searched ROCK FOLLIES.... They listed this page... So I decided if they listed me, I might as well give some valuable information. Plus, I can condense 30 sites into a few sentences.

Apparently ROCK FOLLIES had quite a cultural impact providing inspiration for artists as diverse as KATE BUSH and THE BUZZCOCKS. The latter dirived their band name from a character's catch phrase "Give me a buzz, cock!" (But this could just be an intelectual rationalisation for naming their band after the British slang for vibrators)

A few years later ROCK FOLLIES ended, the Americans attepted to re-create the success with "Three Girls Three" It was described as a variety show about the lives of three cabaret-style singers. Needless to say it was a flop.

Albums containing songs from the ROCK FOLLIES series are available. I would assume (though I don’t know for sure) that CHARLOTTE CORNWELL sings on one or both of them. In any event, TIM CURRY (and LITTLE NELL?) of THE ROCK HORROR PICTURE SHOW FAME are on the albums.

And finally, I discovered a quote from the series that I think is very true when thought of in context of the internet... “sooner or later they all come to the pornographers!” Think about it, dispite BILL CLINTON'S anti-net porn bill, everything on the www eventually leads to PORNOGRAPHY. Well, that's my pet theory anyway. Why not test it out starting with this page and let me know how it turns out???
