 | | There was an all-girl steel band on a truck, there were food stalls and prizes, there was Norman Beaton telling stories, and, to top it all, there was the story of Empire Road being performed in front of the very people who had inspired it. |
 | | Norman Beaton may complain, as he does, that "the Ayckbourns, Stoppards, Mercers of this country don't write parts for fl actors; it's as if they're colour blind". |
 | | The cast, which included Joe Marcell, the notable Norman Beaton, Warren Laryea, Corinne Skinner-Carter, Rudolph Walker, Vincent Taylor Rosa Roberts, Nalini Moonasar, Trevor Butler and Mellen Mitchell, were bright, vivacious and a refreshing change from the relative stable Anglo casts which became recurring features on BBC Television and ITV throughout the 1970s. |
