I was speaking to Richard Bean earlier today about his new play "The Big Fellah" which opens inÌýthe Lyric Theatre in Hammersmith in London next week. And I remembered a summer job there, *cough*Ìýin 1987Ìýin the theatre cafe.ÌýI got to serveÌýdinner every night for six weeks to Kenneth Branagh . He was the lead in a thriller he had written set in Belfast called "Public Enemy". He had written for his newly formed Renaissance Theatre Company.ÌýI got a ticket one night. Even then he was getting a name and there was a real buzz around the theatre, but all I could think was that I knew what he'd had for his dinner.ÌýTheÌýspaghetti bolognese. Richard tells me the cafe has had a make over but doesn'tknow what the menuÌýis for the run of his play! Could I suggest the Ken Branagh special?
