ARTS COUNCIL GRANT FOR TOLD LOOK YOUNGER
I was delighted to learn that we have been given an Arts Council of England grant for the workshops and rehearsed reading of my comedy, TOLD LOOK YOUNGER (see below) on 14th November at the Jermyn Street Theatre. Sue Dunderdale will direct with Jonathan Coy, Philip Franks and Jeff Rawle in the cast. There will also be an opportunity for two young theatre writers to be involved in the process as part of my continuing collaboration with Chris Taylor and New Writing South.

Colin plans to marry his nineteen year old Turkish boyfriend and his two oldest friends are determined to stop him. This is the starting point for an emotional rollercoaster which turns all their lives upside down as they bitch, argue, confide, laugh and cry their way through the changing dishes of the day.
