 | | To call Disley Jones, who has died at the age of 79, a stage designer is to understate his talents. |
 | | He was a theatrical polymath, bursting with informed and idiosyncratic ideas on text, performance and direction; moreover, at any moment he would unhesitatingly take up a hammer or paintbrush and work through the night to put the show on. |
 | | His brother had become a music hall illusionist, and Disley took a few parts in an amateur dramatic society. |
