Dear Theatre Patrons,

All good things must come co an end and by rhe rremendous success ofall the Fawley Towers episodes we have staged (eleven co dare) you have rhoughr them good. In fact last years "Fawley Towers" broke all records for the Society in atren­ dances - we even rumed people away on our normal 'quid night THURSDAY!

I muse say rhar I never expecred rhem ro be sc popular nor did I rhink that I would be adapting and staging all rwelve ofrhe TV scripts. It was a good friend of mine and the CDS, Ketti Kennedy (now Mrs Kerri Hulit), who in 1990 was laughing in my earshot whilsr reading a book. Upon enquiring whar was so amusing she showed me the ride "Fawley Towers". Now Kerri is American and Fawley Towers is very Brirish and I had no idea rhat it had been shown in America on rhe PBS network - in fact Kerri rold me that PBS even had Fawley Towers mararhons. A germ of an idea emered my head, and when Kerri suggested I read the book, which contained all rwelve of the Fawlty Towers TV scriprs, as she rhoughr some of them could be turned imo plays, rhe idea blos­ somed. Thank you Kerri, if ir had nor been for you Fawley Towers would nor have been staged. (See Kerri's Message).

What is my favoutire episode? Basil the Rat. It was one of rhe hardest co stage but, in my opinion, the funniest. That we first performed it at the tiny Victory Theatre (above the now deceased LOtd Nelson Pub) was amazing. I have had trouble wirh it now at the large Prospect Playhouse seage which we have even enlatged for rhis production. Only one member of the otiginal casr of Basil the Rar is on stage here and rhat is Roger Carne (The Major). This is the beauey of theatre - it is never rhe same and I absolutely have forbidden my casr ro imitate the TV show. This is our imer­ pretarion and has been very freely adapted. Some roles have been expanded (especially Miss Tibbs) and rhe purisrs will probably hate me. I have [[ied always ro keep conrinuity berween the twO episodes by amalgamaring characrers and referring to incidents. Well, that's my excuse. What is my favourire memoryl Tony Rowlands as Basil doing his Hider impersonation with comb above lip in . I thought that was funnier than .

Many, many thanks to all the accors who have parricipated in Fawlty Towers. Ir became such an insrirution thar almosr eveeybody in the Socieey wamed to be in it. Almost all our leading acrors accepted tiny pans JUSt co say rhey've been in one. We have listed elsewhete in this programme all the actors who have appeared in the major roles but many, many more have appeared as guesrs. Tim Walsh once made a very memorable appearance as a dead body (after appearing in the very first episode we petformed - "A Touch of Class" as The Major).

Lasdy, thank you to each and everyone of you. Your suPPOrt has been fantastic (Americans will say "Awesome") and it is wirh some sadness that I close the final currain on Fawley Towers.

Hello Cayman! I'm sorry I will have to miss the Gala night and Final Episode of Fawlty Towers. The first performances at The Victory Theatre were very "cozy," especially backstage. No room to move around and Peter (Sullivan) running around preparing props. What a great Manuel. And the telephone would never ring on cue!

I have some very special memories of the construction ofThe Prospect Playhouse as well. The most vivid being when our favourite director, Colin Wilson, fell through a hole in the floor. I had no idea how to get him out!

I would like to thank my friends in the Cayman Drama Society and all my friends in Cayman for all the wonderful memories. Hope to see you at Pirates Week.
