T.O.D.
I have done three Coward shows:
BLITHE SPIRIT
HAY FEVER
PRESENT LAUGHTER
I have also seen several other productions of SPIRIT and PRIVATE LIVES, although I would have killed to see Taylor in Burton do LIVES, but I couldn't get a ticket for love or money (of which I had very little of either).
I think I have mentioned before that PRESENT LAUGHTER was a personal triumph for me. I never fought harder to win a role. It came down between me and one other actor. We went through three different callbacks before I landed the role. When the show opened the audiences loved it, and the local critic at the time made the review a complete valentine to me, leaving out everyone else in the cast. The cast was not thrilled, but the show was a huge hit; and for me, my 15 minutes of fame.
