Evergreen

Perhaps the best British musical ever made, Evergreen features Jessie Matthews, queen of the London musical stage, in one of the greatest roles of her career. Songs by Rodgers and Hart (including their exquisite “Dancing on the Ceiling”) enliven this tale of an Edwardian star who, driven into retirement by her blackmailing ex-husband, is impersonated by her daughter in order to stage a comeback 20 years later.
