The Dresser
by Ronald Harwood
An aclaimed drama
This wonderful play is a study in vanity, loneliness and ambition, that also has many comic moments.
The action takes place in a provincial British town in 1942 during an air raid.
‘Sir’, an actor-manager – and no youngster himself – is trying to keep his troupe going through all the privations the war can throw at him, including a distinct lack of Brown & Polson and a cast comprising “old men, cripples and nancy-boys”.
Parts to be cast:
Norman - the Dresser of the title
Age: 40s/50s
‘Sir’
Age: 60s
'Her Ladyship’
Age: late 40s/early 50s

Irene - the young ASM
