After touring the UK, the producer Bill Kenwright opened another production in London at the Albery Theatre in 1988. An album featuring that cast, including Kiki Dee as Mrs Johnstone, was released the same year. The production moved to the Phoenix Theatre in 1991, where it continued to run until 2012. The cast of that production was recorded in 1995.
