ME & JEZEBEL
Starring Katy Manning, (Jo Grant in Doctor Who)
This hilarious play is based on the real experience of author
Elizabeth Fuller, who in the summer of 1985, by pure chance,
had the legendary screen actress Bette Davis come to stay
at her 'somewhat dilapidated' New England cottage. What
was supposed to be an overnight stay turned into an escapade
which lasted 32 days, in which time Davis turned Fuller's
home and life upside down. In a 'tour de voice' performance,
Katy Manning plays all the parts! The affected, name dropping,
Joan Crawford-hating superstar Bette Davis; the reluctant
hostess, naive, star-struck Elizabeth; her frustrated husband
John; the thumb-sucking impressionable four-year-old son
Christopher; the Irish grandma Ol' Ma; the Dolly Parton-like
singing evangelist Grace - and even the family dog!
WARNING: Miss Davis does use occasional coarse language!
Thursday 3rd September 8pm
Tickets: £15, £12 (conc.)
