What the Butler Saw


What the Butler Saw, Cambridge Arts Theatre, 2001

Cast: Michael Pennington, Kate Alderton, Jane Asher, Edward Clarke, Benjamin Whitrow, David Cardy.

Writer: Joe Orton
Director: Jeremy Sams

I have no recollection off this which might be for the best. Every production of this I see will fail to live up to the TV version I saw starring Timothy West and Prunella Scales. It's not a competition but Jane Asher is not Prunella Scales.
