THE COARSE ACTING SHOW
by Michael Green
Directed by MICHAEL
COLLINS
What is a Coarse Acting
Show?
Michael Green has written a highly entertaining book entitled ”The Art Of
Coarse Acting“ which is an absolute hoot. He defines the Coarse Actor as one
who can remember the lines but not the order in which they come. A Coarse
Acting Show is full of determined enthusiasm, with a cast quite convinced
they are marvellous, “Better than the West End”, Who bravely soldier despite
ill fitting costumes, grotesque props hideous makeup with sound effects and
lighting which seems to have been devised to completely upstage the actors.
Probably the lead man in the previous show has been Demoted to follow spot
and is seeking vengeance
Michael Collins has been a stalwart of the group, onstage and on the
Committee for many years. Michael joined Belmont circa 1977 but really
moved onstage in 1982 and has rarely been off it since! This is Michael’s 5th
direction for Belmont and we are sure his natural sense of timing and comedy
will be evident In this show.
