Episode 924: Mad About the Boys: Novello, Coward and Porter (part 1)
Episode 924
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026
MusicalTalk marks the 75th anniversary of the death of Ivor Novello, one of the greatest British musical theatre writers of the 20th Century in opulant style! Join Thos for the first half of a fascinating conversation with the people behind the 2025 EdFringe Cabaret Show, Mad About the Boys, which looks at the lives of those three friends, rivals and contemporaries, Cole Porter, Noel Coward and Ivor Novello. Seasoned with a pinch of Seigfried Sassoon, and insights into some of the great songs of the period (Keep the Home Fires Burning for one), you'll feel you've been to a marvellous party!
