Midnight.... not a sound from the pavement....
T.S. Eliot - Born 26 September 1888 in St. Louis, Missouri, died 4 January 1965 aged 76 in London, this poet, dramatist and literary critic was American by birth and declared British from 1927. Elliot attended Harvard University and Merton College, Oxford gaining an A.B. in philosophy. He was married twice, to Vivienne Haigh-Wood (1915–1947)and Esmé Valerie Fletcher (1957–1965).
In 1930, Thomas Stearns Eliot published a book of verse, ,'Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats... after Thomas's death, the book was adapted into the infamous musical, Cats, by the inspired and inspiring Andrew Lloyd Webber, opening in London's West End in 1981. I was fortunate enough to be in the audience that year, on a school trip at the tender age of twelve! Elaine Paige, Brian Blessed, Paul Nicholas, Wayne Sleep, Bonnie Langford... goodness knows who else, Richard Stilgoe was sitting behind us too... I think I would fully appreciate it much more now...
Trivia... Finola Hughes, the 'cat' far right of the top pic also starred with John Travolta in the 'Saturday Night Fever' sequel, 'Staying Alive'... top girl!!
