Be uplifted.

On BBC Two last night there was a programme that brought tears to my eyes both or pride and sadness at the courage and persistence of these people. Warwick Davis's Big Night Out was about the production of a farce See How They Run that has been taken around the country to various theatres. The issue was their stature as actors. All were of limited height, but their ability to act cannot be limited or be doubted! I have worked in repertory theatres across the county and at the National Theatre and have no qualms in recommending them. This is a must see programme as it raises important moral issues for all of us regarding our prejudices and preconceptions. Why has this not be done before? Thankfully as Warwick suggested "at least it has been now when he is 55". Lets have more of this both on the telly and in the theatres across they country.
