NOTES
ANORAK OF FIRE....1994
A hilarious play about life, love and trainspotting. By Stephen Dinsdale. 28 Jun 94 & 14 Sep 95.
'I was born a spotter.' Thus we are introduced to Gus Gascoigne,
young, spotty, perpetually cheerful and completely bemused by
anything that isn't involved with his sole interest - trainspotting.
Touching, ironic and consistently hilarious, Anorak of Fire
enjoyed a long run at London's Arts Theatre, after the
Edinburgh Fringe.
The Colour Norman....1995
15.11.95. Science student Norman invents a new colour, and is
besieged by all and sundry, anxious to get their hands
on it. A superb comedy by Stephen Dinsdale and Jerome Vincent.
NIMBY....1997
By Stephen Dinsdale and Jerome Vincent. 11 Jun 97. The demolition work for the new slip road is just
about to begin; when Eamon sees a fairy standing on his gear stick. With Rachel Atkins; Ioan Meredith;
Mark Bonnar and Sean Barrett.
