Presented by Southwick Players
Directed by H Reeves
Based on author Ronald Harwood’s own experience as Dresser to Sir Donald Wolfitt, this poignant, heart-warming drama tells the story of an ageing actor’s personal assistant who struggles to keep his charge’s life together.
The play captures the sentiment, the bitchiness and the anecdotal backstage as Norman strives to prepare Sir for his 227th performance of King Lear.
Affectionate and comical, this love letter to the theatre is an intelligent glimpse behind the curtain.
