Today we like the sound of four new plays coming to the Brighton Dome. Today is the third in the series, seeing Artists Development come to the stage with Reeling on show tonight. Tonight, the story of Mabel Menzies, "an Austrian child star who suddenly disappears and Lenny Fyler the TV researchers assigned to find our why." Good old detective business in this modern production, which sees the best of theatre development come to the stage. It sounds good, and as part of the Arts Council England, perhaps a little surprising.
The unabridged plot is thus:
"Mabel Menzies had been an Austrian child star who made a faltering transition into British films as a young adult. She suddenly 'disappeared'. Lenny Fyler, a TV researcher, is assigned to find out why."
It's only £10 with £8 for concessions, and worth a good visit we reckon, with the Dome as perhaps a more surefire bet that you'll see the better of new talent. (Written by Jeff Thomson, directed by Roland Jaquarello, with a good cast of: Elizabeth Counsell, June Watson, Jenny Funnell, Marcus Hutton & Jos Vantyler.)
