Blood Brothers Closes

In 2012 Lyn Paul was invited to reprise her role as Mrs. Johnstone in the final two weeks of Blood Brothers at the Phoenix Theatre, London.

Blood Brothers was originally due to end its 24-year run in the West End on 27th October but an extra two weeks was added due to public demand (29th October to 10th November).

Bill Kenwright, the show's producer, said: "I’ve invited Lyn to perform the last two weeks of the show at the Phoenix, as she was one of my all time favourite Mrs J’s." Lyn said that she felt "very honoured" to be asked and added: "The show is going to be fantastic... Bill Kenwright has pulled out all the stops. It will be such a touching and poignant two weeks. If you can get there... DO!"

You can see photos taken on the last night in our Blood Brothers photo album.

Late Night

Lyn Paul's last album, Late Night, is still available if you haven't yet added it to your collection. Lyn, who last released an album in 1975, returned to the recording studios in 2005 with Rod Edwards, the musical director from Blood Brothers.

In addition to two new songs, Clouds and Dance With Desire, Late Night (Catalogue number: ARCD4503) features new recordings of some old favourites, including: Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down), Behind Closed Doors, Crying, Dance With My Father, Have I Told You Lately, Hurt, I Only Have Eyes For You, In My Life, Late Night Grande Hotel and Talking In Your Sleep. One of the songs that Lyn began work on, Save The Best For Last, was not included on the album. There is, however, an extra track at the end (not listed on the album sleeve) which Lyn added especially for her husband, Alan, and her son, Ryan.

The album is available to download from iTunes. The CD may be purchased online from Gift Of Sound, Amazon and Play.com.

On The Radio
 

WFM: Cruise News

On 7th November Lyn's home town radio station, Wythenshaw FM (WFM 97.2) broadcast an interview Lyn had recorded with Christopher Otway. Lyn talked about the New Seekers, Blood Brothers and her roots in Wythenshawe.

"I was born in Blakeley and then lived in Woodhouse Park... near the park on the other side of Atlrincham Road... And then we moved over to actually live on Altrincham Road, so I'm very much a Wythenshawe girl - and that never changes... I'm still a northerner and I'm still a Wythenshawe girl."

Lyn also mentioned her plans for a family Christmas and for the New Year.

"I was very lucky doing 'Emmerdale' and 'Holby City' and 'Doctors'... so I'm hoping to do some more TV acting... I'm also getting a couple of acts together. I'm doing some cruising work next year... What is it? Saga - that's great isn't it? At my age, Saga! Suits me down to the ground!"

Lyn Paul was originally going to board the cruise liner The Ruby in Wellington on 3rd March and disembark a week later in Sydney. The ship, however, fell three weeks behind schedule so Lyn actually boarded in St. Vincent and disembarked in Brazil. This is The Ruby's very last voyage.

Who said that?

Today

Yesterday is a cancelled cheque; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have - so spend it wisely.
Kay Lyons

O, that a man might know
The end of this day's business ere it come!
William Shakespeare, 'Julius Caesar' (Act V, Scene I)

What next?

Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future.
Niels Bohr

I have learned to live each day as it comes and not to borrow trouble by dreading tomorrow. It is the dark menace of the future that makes cowards of us.
Dorothy Dix, 'Her Book'

I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
Albert Einstein

The future is hidden even from the men who made it.
Anatole France

There are two options: adapt or die.
Andrew S. Grove

My interest is in the future because I am going to spend the rest of my life there.
Charles Franklin Kettering

It is not wise to look too far ahead; our powers of prediction are slight, our command over results infinitesimal.
John Maynard Keynes

What we call our future is the shadow which our past throws in front of us.
Marcel Proust

If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottages princes' palaces.
William Shakespeare, 'The Merchant Of Venice' (Act I, Scene II)

Where next?

The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are.
John Burroughs

It isn't where you came from; it's where you're going that counts.
Ella Fitzgerald
