Dear Daryl
 
STUFF

 
I really enjoyed the opening night and felt that you had all done an amazing job under difficult circumstances. This run should be a corker!
 
I have not felt very song inspired this weekend, I’m afraid, so you get one new song (Win A Lot), one sketch (which might well suit amalgamating with other similar material if you’ve had some) and an update of my song about the homeless that was in the show for a few weeks in Autumn 1992. I feel that it reflects current events better than it did in 1992!
 
I am glad you said you’re working on “Song With No Tune” and “Wimbledon”, especially the former. My test audience all really liked it. Several people were unaware that the Woodstock revival festival is to be called “Bethel”. Consider substituting “Woodstock” for “Bethel” (they scan the same), but I think that the festival promoters will have their way and Bethel will have wide name recognition in a week or two.
 
Look forward to seeing you soon, hopefully Thursday.
 
Yours sincerely
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ian Harris
