This album captures the last musical for which Coward wrote both book, music, and lyrics, marking it as his penultimate musical overall and notably the first he wrote specifically for Broadway rather than premiering in London. Unique aspects include significant revisions during tryouts that elevated Stritch's role to the lead, along with Coward's own direction of the production. Fan-favorites and standout tracks include the satirical showstopper \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eWhy Do the Wrong People Travel?,\u003c\/span\u003e performed by Stritch and often revived in cabaret, as well as the title song \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eSail Away\u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003e and the poignant \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eLater Than Spring.\u003c\/span\u003e The score is celebrated for its sophisticated charm, though the show itself had a modest run of 167 performances.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52967706296601,"sku":"WAO-1643","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-noel_coward-sail_away_original_broadway_cast.jpg?v=1786239301","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/wao-1643","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
