"Michael Gallagher, bobble hat, stage 1, was customs officer, whose defeat by R Hood (Joe Maxwell? I was teaching once a week with this guy! An Irishman, non Priorian) was loudly cheered. Frank Toop (Priory, Londoner) was a wicked royal person. Ray Murphy, in the fetching stripes, was the good prince who came out on top. Another non-Priorian, from East Kilbride, where I guess you'll find him yet."

(L-R): Dave Simpson, lighting, Maurice Billingsley, producer;
Dick Kinlen - righthand man? Maurice McPartlan, costumes?

This was the production where Peter Hurrell was beheaded, though the
bloodthirsty audience wanted REAL BLOOD and a real head. When we kicked
a football into the auditorium there was an almighty scramble and we were
then able to move the production on. . . . I think Maurice McP is suffering from
crazyfoam rather than loss of emulsion from the print.
