Love and Miss Harris

A collection of theatrical misfits go on tour, in this nostalgic trip back in time. Actor and manager Titus has lost a backer who was going to fund a theatrical tour
when unexpected salvation appears. Their home theatre in the East End of London having been bombed during the war, The Red Lion Touring Company embarks on a tour of Britain with a play written by their new benefactress. This charming series transports the reader to a lost post-war world of touring rep theatre and once grand people who have fallen on harder times, smoggy streets, and shared bonhomie over a steaming kettle. The mood is whimsical, wistful, nostalgic, yet with danger and farce along the way.

He studied at the Actor’s Workshop in London, and worked as an actor before founding a fringe theatre in Barnes, London. He is married and lives in Wales.
