A MESSAGE FROM PATRICIA MEADOWS

Our star Jessica Martin (aka Patricia Meadows) posted this lovely message:

When Stephen Wyatt and I were out in LA for the Gallifrey One convention in 2017, we spent a lot of time talking about our mutual love of old movie star biographies and memoirs. Patricia Meadows was ‘conceived’ out of a desire to celebrate and mourn the British female stars of the 40’s whose star never lasted as long as their male counterparts. How fortunate was I to have a full blown play created by Stephen and then, cherry on the cake, to have the marvellous Samuel Clemens agree to direct the play and create special film sequences. And Patricia’s beautiful hair, her crowning glory, was lovingly recreated by Sue Pedersen at Wig Specialities.. an essential part of her persona. With the incredible offer of a run at Waterloo East Theatre, we had a place to ‘give birth’. Here we are with the last of our four try-out performances tonight at Waterloo East. Thank you to everyone who has come to see the play. We appreciate your support.
