Danny La Rue in Queen Passionella and the Sleeping Beauty
Look what's arrived in the post. It's the programme for my only West End appearance.
The cast list reveals no star names beyond Danny La Rue - I get the impression he had his own company of regulars - but there are some very 1969 advertisements I shall share with you one day.
The cast may not have comprised stars, but one name leapt out at me: Dorothy Dampier. Was she related to the much-loved (within and without the profession) Claude Dampier, comedian and actor, and regular on Jewel and Warris's radio series? Indeed she was.
ReplyDeleteAccording to her biography on IMDB, she was his daughter. Well spotted.
