Talk To The Flipper (Reprise)

It has been brought - via a somewhat circuitous route - to Lady Bracknell's attention that the cast and crew of "Thalidomide: A Musical" are poised to hit the road once more.

Regular readers will recall that the editor and her friends behaved rather badly at a performance of the show last November. So badly, in fact, that Lady Bracknell will be surprised if any one of the four is permitted to purchase a ticket from any of the venues on the current tour. In defence of herself and her partners in vandalism, the editor is keen to point out that the incident with the Ouch badge was the result of "youthful" high spirits engendered by enjoyment of the show: she also recommends that such persons who did not get the chance to attend a performance last autumn take the opportunity to see it in its new incarnation. (Although they may not wish to travel as far as Versailles to do so.)

It seems that Mr Fraser and his business cohorts have not been slow to recognise the fact that theatre audiences are often willing to pay for items which will remind them of the performance thay have just enjoyed. The range of merchandise available at venues will include the "Flid-ball Cap" pictured to the left.
