Rain Man, Norwich Theatre Royal, 2009.

I imagine I saw the film this was based on because at that time it would have been almost illegal not to go and see a Tom Cruise film. I doubt that or this version would get made now as it probably wasn't the best way to discuss autism, but different times. I was going to say I couldn't imagine any other Tom Cruise films might be adapted to the stage but A Few Good Men already has been - "you can't handle the truth!" As long as nobody gets ideas about Eyes Wide Shut we'll be fine.
