Casebook Message Boards: Ripper Media: General Discussion: THE JACK THE RIPPER REVIEW(REVUE?)
Author: kevin g shinnick Wednesday, 03 January 2001 - 09:50 am | |
Hi, this is my first posting on the site, and i was wondering whether any of you Ripperologists might help me. In the early 90s,I saw a magnificnet musical called THE JACK THE REIPPER REVIEW(REVUE?) in NYC, and it was probably one of the most complete investigations yet into the case. Wonderful songs, brilliant acting, and some disturbing imagery-- yet this play/musical is unknown and unreproduced? Anyone have any info on it, or where i might track down a copy of the script?? Also, Id like to see what play scripts are out there on JACK THE RIPPER. HAPPY NEW MILLENIUM ,all!

Dear Kevin, I have a copy of BLOODY JACK, a play, and the CD of the musical (with narrative) of YOURS TRULY, JACK THE RIPPER for sale. The music in the CD is very good, and there is an accurate version of the song Mary Kelly was said to be singing on the night she died. I believe it's the only time many of us have ever heard the song. There are other plays out there which occasionally turn up on the used book sites on the web...most notably, Ron Pember and Denis de Marne's, JACK THE RIPPER. Sharon Pollock also has a play called SAUCY JACK, which is devilishly hard to find. If you're interested in either the BLOODY JACK or the CD, please e-mail me at needler@intelos.net . Regards and welcome to the boards, Judy Stock
