After the highly successful productions of the musicals Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita, the intense collaboration between composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and librettist Tim Rice suffered significant cracks. Lloyd Webber therefore concentrated on a few more modest projects. And the most striking was the musical for one actress Tell Me on a Sunday . It is the story of a young English woman who suddenly appears in America, where she experiences a series of relationship vicissitudes. In our country, Tell Me on a Sunday has only been performed under the title Líp se loučí v sediná once, in 2001 in the translation by Pavel Vrba (+2011) at the Ungelt Theater with Marta Kubišová.
The world premiere took place in London in 1982 and, as the musical lasted only an hour, it was presented on stage together with the composer's previous work from 1978, which originally took the form of his brother Julian's gramophone album Variations . It was a freely worked theme by Paganini, but for cello. On stage, the Variations were supplemented with a ballet component.

 
As a lyricist for Tell Me on a Sunday , he chose the experienced lyricist Donn Black, with whom he collaborated ten years later on the famous Sunset Boulevard . The one-hour recital about a young English woman's search for her own path was originally written for the singer Marti Webb. In the new millennium, specifically in 2003, Tell Me on a Sunday was staged again in London. But in the edited full-length version. And it was for her that we obtained a license for the next season for Theater "12" and the representative Hana Fialova . Michael Prostějovský , almost a court translator of Lloyd Webber's musicals, will take care of the new texts and adaptation of the Czech libretto. For Hana Fialová, this is an extraordinary opportunity to introduce herself to the Ostrava audience with a very intimate story and great music, so to speak, within reach of the audience.

English

Po veleúspěšných inscenacích muzikálů Jesus Christ Superstar a Evita intenzivní spolupráce skladatele Andrewa Lloyda Webbera a libretisty Tima Rice doznala značné trhliny. Lloyd Webber se proto soustředil na několik komornějších projektů. A tím nejvýraznějším byl právě muzikál pro jednu herečku Tell Me on a Sunday. Jde o příběh mladé Angličanky, která se náhle objevuje v Americe, kde prožívá řadu vztahových peripetií. U nás bylo Tell Me on a Sunday uvedeno pod názvem Líp se loučí v neděli zatím jen jednou, a to v roce 2001 v překladu Pavla Vrby (+2011) v Divadle Ungelt s Martou Kubišovou.
Světová premiéra se konala v Londýně v roce v roce 1982 a protože muzikál trval pouhou hodinu, byl na scéně uveden společně s předchozím dílem skladatele z roku 1978, které mělo původně podobu gramofonového alba jeho bratra Juliana Variations. Šlo o volně zpracované téma Paganiniho, avšak pro cello. Na jevišti pak Variations byly doplněny baletní složkou.

 
Jako autora textů si pro Tell Me on a Sunday vybral zkušeného textaře Donna Blacka, se kterým o deset let později spolupracoval i na slavném Sunset Boulevardu. Hodinový recital o hledání vlastní cesty mladé Angličanky byl napsán původně pro zpěvačku Marti Webbovou. V novém miléniu, konkrétně v roce 2003 byl pak v Londýně nastudován Tell Me on a Sunday znovu. Avšak v upravené celovečerní verzi. A právě na ni jsme pro Divadlo „12“ a představitelku Hanu Fialovu získali licenci pro příští sezónu. O nové texty a úpravu českého libreta se tak postará téměř dvorní překladatel Lloyd Webberových muzikálů Michael Prostějovský. Pro Hanu Fialovou tak jde o mimořádnou příležitost představit se ostravským divákům s velmi niterným příběhem a skvělou hudbou divákům tak říkajíc na dosah.
