About this Event

His father was a tailor, and he went to RADA to train as an actor; but hated it and left without finishing the course. During the 2nd world Blitz in London he was evacuated as a small child to Cornwall. Later, while touring Ireland with a crazy Shakespeare company he started writing plays . Deeply influenced by the theatre of the absurd. One of His first plays “The Dumb Waiter” has 2 criminals waiting for orders in a cellar from Above. The orders come, but the conclusions are shocking.
