'That's All Folks'... For Now

Yesterday afternoon saw the final performance of 'The Street Cleaner.' It has been rollercoaster ride for all concerned - not least John Whittell and Brian Wilson, aka Jimmy and Milton respectively... It seems like such a long time since we were first sitting in a room in the Crescent Theatre, starring at each other and wondering what the following few months would bring... I was not dissapointed, and it has been a wonderful experience directing two highly skilled actors; actors who were constantly living their characters, continually coming up with new ideas and fresh ways to explore their subjects... Thank you both.

Thank you also to Ian Thompson, Robert Ball and Jackie Blackwood: Without you, this would not have been possible. Thank you to my PA Linda Arrowsmith, who kept the boys topped up with Dandelion and Burdock. And thank you to the sound and light technicians - you did a superb job.

And a BIG thank you to all who have been following this blog, and who came to watch the first outing of 'The Street Cleaner.' And please keep checking the blog for updates... 'The Street Cleaner' may be coming to a theatre near you!
