Notes: | written by Jan Farmery and the Company, music by Pat Whymark | |||||
| NO SONG NO SUPPER recreates those golden days when whole towns surged onto the streets for the triumphant arrival of the Players; when for a whole fortnight they play was the thing. For over a hundred years, the Norwich and Fisher companies of Comedians toured East Anglia, performing in barns, booths and beer-houses across the region; and the building of the Theatres Royal in the big towns, and the setting up of a chain of playhouses from Wells to Woodbridge only confirmed their success and popularity. The 70-year-old juvenile Mr Penchard, the young but ardent Mr Hackett, the ravishing Mrs Inchbald, and the extraordinary Fisher family give the performances of their lives. | |||||
