Yep, it's perfect timing, because I'll be in Inverness in August, so I plan on making the trek out to Edinburgh. Look forward to your performance, I loved the film. I know the writer of the film so I'm sort of reporting back to him since he thinks he's going to be unable to make it.

A friend of mine was auditioned for the China Blue part when this was made into a West End theatre production, and decided not to go any further because she decided that it was a bit dodgy... she was apparently unaware at the time that it had been a mainstream film with Kathleen Turner, but there you are...

Incidentally, I remember hearing that this film was originally based on a play from the Weimar Republic (possibly by Brecht), except that I can't find the original title. Does anyone have any ideas?
