This show's a fundraiser for
Hyde Park Theatre, written and performed by HPT's artistic director
Ken Webster, and it's
about Hyde Park Theatre – the highs and lows of the company's long history, the ins and the outs, the day-to-day humdrum and (until we see this show we can only imagine) the
truly fucking weird. Fascinating from a local perspective, even if you've never been (how?) to HPT, and – as manifested by Webster, live onstage – well worth seeing. He's fierce, funny, obsessive, a true powerhouse of professional passion. And, yes, he
was our cover story back in 2007.
