	The Project Gutenberg eBook of Liza of Lambeth, by Somerset Maugham
		Liza saw what a sensation she was creating; she arched her back and lifted her head, and walked down the street, swaying her body from side to side, and swaggering along as though the whole place belonged to her.
		Liza when she was dressing herself in the morning, felt the hardness of fate in the impossibility of eating one's cake and having it; she wished she had reserved her new dress, and had still before her the sensation of a first appearance in it.
		Liza quite forgot her companion, and was intent on the scene; she watched the incidents breathlessly, trembling with excitement, almost beside herself at the celebrated hanging incident.

		Liza did not clear the supper things away as she was told, but opened the window and drew her chair to it.

		The boys were still playing cricket, but they were mostly at the other end of the street, and their shouts were muffled before they reached Liza's ears.

		Based on W Somerset Maugham's first novel, this musical tells the story of an impoverished but charismatic young girl, Liza Kemp, who tragically falls for an older, married man the only person she'd ever met who shared her dreams for the future.
		Literary legend has it that before he died, Maugham instructed his lifelong friend and agent, Spencer Curtis Brown, never to allow his novel to be turned into a straight play, and even suggested it had the potential to become a stage musical.
		But Liza of Lambeth is, nonetheless, a cockney romp of a performance, packed with comedy moments and show-stopping songs.

		William Somerset Maugham's remarkable first novel was such an instant success that the 23-year-old medical student left school to become a full-time author.
		Liza, a vibrant but poverty-stricken London girl, is the most graceful and daring dancer that anyone has ever seen, wildly moving to the music of the Italian organ player on Old Kent Road.
		But her bright light begins to dim as the tragic effects of illness and poverty overtake her body, if not her spirit.

	Threepenny: Colegate, Somerset Maugham
		Liza of Lambeth, Maugham's first novel, was published in 1897, when Maugham was a twenty-three-year-old medical student.
		The novel is hard to read now because of the stage Cockney of the dialogue and the lurid melodrama of the plot, but it dealt courageously with the dire conditions of the very poor in the East End of London.
		The realism, the acute observation of externals, the determination to look life square in the eye, was directed to a higher level of society—brittle cocktail women succeeded the earthy Liza, though the whore with the heart of gold makes regular reappearances.

		Liza is a bit of a social butterfly in the neighborhood and is well-liked until she garners the attention of a married man. This connection grows with tragic consequences.
		There is little sentimentality in the novel, and Maugham was apparently inspired by his work as a medical student in the London slums.
		Later in his life he joked about being a Midwife in his youth and delivering over a hundered babies for the poor.

		Based on W. Somerset Maugham's first novel, written in 1897, the musical Liza of Lambeth opened at London's Shaftesbury Theatre in June 1976, and lasted 110 performances.
		The best number is a male counterpoint duet called "Good Bad Time," and Richards does her best to belt her routine first-act-closer, "Beautiful Colors." But Liza of Lambeth, recently issued for the first time on CD, is one of the weakest of all recorded West End scores.
		Concerned with a power struggle in Tombstone, Arizona in 1881 and featuring in its narrative Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp, and the OK Corral, the musical Sundown received a staged reading at York Theatre Company in 2001.
