WATCH ON THE RHINE
1989 Stage West Theatre
written by: Lillian Helman
Year: 1989
Location: Massachusetts.
MISERY
1992 - 1993 Criterion Theatre
Misery - with Sharon Gless and Bill Paterson as Annie Wilkes and Paul Sheldon. The romantic novelist Paul Sheldon is imprisoned after a road accident by his "number one fan", the unhinged Annie Wilkes, who destroys his serious novel and tortures him into resurrecting his dead pulp heroine.
Bill Paterson is perceptively cast: he has the gift of commandeering the moral centre in whatever play he appears in. Gless works gamely at Annie, but has little to bite on � instead of the film's mercurial rages, the character here is consistently, sadistically and wicked.
Written by: Stephen King
Stage version:Simon Moore
Starring: Sharon Gless, Bill Paterson
Location: London
