Remember my theatre-loving, 80-something neighbour Dudley? I& #39;ve been phoning him daily during #Londonlockdown, but he& #39;s getting bored & sad. So I& #39;ve come up with a new #DudleysProgrammes project. I hope you can get involved & bring some luvvie love to Dudley alone at home.
In addition to accompanying me to @TheUnionTheatre & @swkplay in the past, Dudley gifted me his lifetime library of programmes. He& #39;s shared many memories about the joy theatre has brought to his life.

Each Sun during #LondonLockdown, I& #39;ll choose 5 of #DudleysProgrammes to share with you here. He tells me his memories. I tell him how people have responded on Twitter each day (he doesn& #39;t even have a computer, constantly asks: am I still on the web?)
Here& #39;s this week& #39;s crop...

So here we go. Today& #39;s pick from #DudleysProgrammes is WINNIE, Robin Hardy& #39;s musical about #WinstonChurchill at the Victoria Palace in 1988. @DMTWestEnd
A good place to start as we invoke the #Blitz spirit! Did you see it? Any memories? #LondonLockdown #Londontheatre

WINNIE starred Robert Hardy (any relation to the writer?) & Virginia McKenna.

Headshots just aren& #39;t what they were in the 1980s, right?!
Please someone tell me where Robin Hunt is now? As for Angela Lloyd, I make no judgment: I had that haircut myself back in the day.

This musical story of #WinstonChurchill (sort of) appears to include scenes from Downing Street, the battlefield &, um, a dodgy-looking Turkish bath?

Today& #39;s #DudleysProgrammes pick is a play I actually saw myself: Charlotte Jones& #39; #HumbleBoy premiered at @NationalTheatre in 2001 with Simon Russell Beale & Diana Rigg. It transferred to the Gielgud where Dudley caught it with Adrian Scarborough & Maria Aitken in 2002. Seen it?
Inspired by #Shakespeare& #39;s #Hamlet, #HumbleBoy was set at a country house in modern England where Felix Humble mourned not just the loss of his dead father but also the

Today& #39;s #DudleysProgrammes pick is #Gigi at the Lyric Theatre in 1985.
Best known as a 1958 MGM film classic (based on Colette& #39;s 1944 novel), it was rewritten for this stage musical, inc 4 new songs & orchestrations by Lerner & Loewe. Did anyone see it? #theatrethrowback

#Gigi& #39;s royal gala raised funds for #PrincePhilip& #39;s appeal for veterans of #WWII. A worthy cause, says Dudley, who was a child during the war, but the production deserved to be a bigger spectacle, like at @TheatreRoyalDL where #MyFairLady broke records. #DudleysProgrammes
Thank heaven for little girls? French film star Jean Pierre Aumont (& #39;very suave& #39;, says Dudley) was Honore in #Gigi onstage alongside British stars #BerylReid & #SianPhillips & a young @WaringAmanda in the title role.

That means today is this week& #39;s final #DudleysProgrammes pick & it& #39;s a flash-bang-wallop one from #HalfASixpence starring #TommySteele... the 1967 film, that is.
