The
landmark
revue
Cranks
was
first
performed
just
before
Christmas
1955
and
upon
receiving
glowing
reviews
it
quickly
moved
into
the
West
End
to
the
St.
Martin's
Theatre.
Written
and
devised
by
John
Cranko,
a
respected
choreographer
of
the
Sadler's
Wells
Ballet
Company
and
John
Addison
who
composed
the
score,
Cranko's
new
wave
revue
had
a
style
and
approach
of
its
own,
and
this
followed
the
choice
of
musical
accompaniment
-
a
harpsichord,
doubled
with
a
piano,
and
a
harp.
The
cast
were
a
deliberate
mix.
One
black
male
and
a
white
female
joined
two
white
men:
Anthony
Newley,
with
a
score
or
so
non-singing
films
under
his
belt,
and
ballet
dancer
Gilbert
Vernon.
The
remaining
two
other
performers
were
the
American
Hugh
Bryant
making
his
first
appearance
in
Britain
and
Annie
Ross,
the
jazz
singer:
both
were
replacements
for
the
West
End
transfer
but
featured
in
the
cast
recording.
Cranks
transferred
to
the
Duchess
Theatre
in
May
and
finally
went
to
the
Lyric,
Hammersmith
where
it
stayed
until
mid
September
eventually
totaling
a
respectable
223
performances
in
London.
Two
months
later
it
opened,
cast
intact,
on
Broadway
at
the
Bijou
Theatre.
Long
unavailable,
the
cast
recording
of
Cranks
has
been
digitally
remastered
for
this
CD
release.
For
bonus
tracks
we
include
ten
songs
performed
by
Annie
Ross,
mainly
recorded
in
the
mid-1950s,
around
the
time
she
was
in
Cranks,
and
most
are
appearing
on
CD
for
the
first
time.
