Knicker 'n' nice

Knicker 'n' nice

If Downstage's latest venture is to succeed plenty of scriptwriters will be needed. Every Friday and Saturday night, after the main show, Downstage plan to present a satirical revue. Although the bulk of material for the opening programme (the revue began last weekend) is by two members of the four-man cast, Steve Whitehouse and Roger Hall, new material will be needed if a completely new show can be presented every six weeks.

The other members of the cast are David Smith and Cecily Poison. Miss Poison has previously appeared at Downstage in The Killing of Sister George and is currently playing the part of Julia in Two Gentlemen of Verona. Messrs Whitehouse, Hall, and Smith will be familiar to students for the appearances in university revues, extravs, and debates.

Producing the revue is Dick Johnstone who claims "the idea of this show is not only to provide high-quality satire, but also a late-night entertainment other than striptease".
