STEPPING OUT - THE MUSICAL Thorndike Theatre, Leatherhead - 20 November, 1996 - 14 December, 1996 Albery Theatre, London - 28 October, 1997 - 28 February. 1998 John Golden Theatre, Broadway, New York - Opened 11th January, 1987; closed 15th March, 1987 (29 previews, 72 performances) Music by Denis King; Lyrics by Mary Stewart-David; Book by Richard Harris (based on the original play by Richard Harris). Revised as One Night a Week Stepping Out, which enjoyed a hugely successful West End run and won Evening Standard Best Comedy Award for 1984, is a warm and very funny play about the lives of a group of women (and one man) attending a weekly tap-dance class in a dingy North London church hall. As the play progresses, the class's dancing improves to such an extent that by the climax, a grand charity show performance, they have been transformed into triumphant tappers, worthy of any chorus line. The musical version lifts the story to a new dimension.
