Description: For the first time on CD, this 1961 musical biography of Edmund Kean (from Jean-Paul Sartre’s 1953 adaptation of the 1836 drama by Alexandre Dumas) stars Tony Award-winner Alfred Drake (Kiss Me, Kate, Kismet) and was one of the eagerly anticipated and enormously ambitious musicals of the early 60s.

With a score from the composers of Kismet & Song of Norway, Kean was filled with an extravaganza packed with philosophy, a search for identity, low comedy, swordplay, jugglers, Hamlet, Romero, Othello and more. Like his other noted roles, Drake portrays the spectacular title role with all of his commanding vitality.
