Bring on the Girls

A series of partly fictionalised, partly apocryphal stories centred on the world of Broadway written by Wodehouse with his friend, Guy Bolton Despite an enormous solo output, P. G Wodehouse often co-operated with other writers, especially in the early stages of his career, exchanging or sharing plots, advising on problems and even writing books and stage-works together. Bring on the Girls is a characteristically mordant account of his work with Guy Bolton in musical comedy, which occupied much of Wodehouse’s energy from his arrival in America and effectively made his reputation. This is a tactful book – there are no shocking revelations – but an extremely amusing one, with vivid portraits of such stars as Gertrude Lawrence and insights into febrile life behind the scenes. —- ISBN: 9781841591933
