101 Dalmatians: The Musical at the Liverpool Empire had me howling
Since I was a girl 101 Dalmatians has been a favourite film of mine. So when I was offered the chance to see it on the stage at the Liverpool Empire, with Kym Marsh playing, in my opinion, the most iconic villain of all time, Cruella De Vil, I would have been barking mad not to accept.
View gallery Because, in this adaptation of the Disney film, the moment Kym Marsh entered the stage, in her devilishly high knee boots, wearing a striking giraffe animal print ensemble, Cruella’s trademark two tone black and white hair and laughing with that evil cackle heard only in nightmares, it was clear for the whole audience to see, the former Coronation Street actress really had, as the gentleman said, ‘found her calling’.
A burning question I’d had before the show was answered almost immediately when I saw Dalmatian Pongo, played by Linford Johnson, on stage. I’d assumed the dogs would be played by actors in costume, but how they were actually portrayed went far beyond my expectations.
