    About this ebook

    Two thirty-year old English scoundrels watch two classic American movies on a balmy Spring 1975 evening. Four days later they are on their way to the adventure of their lives in the City of Angels.

    A tale of sex, drugs and rock & roll in a debauched Hollywood world harking back to the excesses of ancient Rome which leads right up to the end of the line four years later on New Years Eve 1979.

Silence - a positive value completely overlooked by many today...Reading - carefully judged. If I'm not hooked by the first sequence - the first paragraph - I won't read any further...Trying, day in day out, not to spill any more milk... and to stop crying over milk already spilt.Not suffering fools gladly...Analysing Casablanca, frame for frame, line by line...(TBC...)PublicationsMy scripts have been broadcast on RTE, Radio One, BBC 4 and, in translation, on European networks; televised on RTE One, BBC One and Channel 4; staged at the Peacock by the Abbey National Theatre, at the Project, the Eblana, the Liverpool Playhouse and on the London Fringe...Credits include The Night of the Rouser.
