Jeremy Irons Singing!

After Thursday 22nd May's performance of Never So Good, the cast took to the stage in the bar in a cabaret to raise money for the Macmillan cancer support trust (www.macmillan.org.uk). With apologies for the poor sound quality, I give you Mr. Jeremy Irons singing '(Don't Put Your Daughter on the Stage) Mrs Worthington' by Noel Coward.

On my knees, Mrs. Worthington, Please Mrs. Worthington, Don't put your daughter on the stage. Don't put your daughter on the stage, Mrs. Worthington, Don't put your daughter on the stage, Though they said at the school of acting She was lovely as Peer Gynt, I'm afraid on the whole An ingénue role Would emphasize her squint, She's a big girl ...
