ALBERT MAKE US LAUGH - May 2004
About the play Meet Albert Nuttall – an eleven year old on his first day at Belmont Fields Secondary Modern School. Some would say he is a little backward but really he is very special and just a little bit talented - but children can be so very cruel to each other… This funny, touching and uplifting story told entirely by adults may well remind you of your own schooldays – and you’ll not be sorry that you laughed. About the Author Jimmy Chinn was born in Middleton, Manchester and moved to London to train at RADA in 1959. A short, undistinguished career as an actor resulted in him training as a teacher of English and Drama and he taught in Middlesex until 1984 when he took up writing full-time. Success with radio plays led him to write for the stage and his first West End production came in 1992 with Straight and Narrow which starred Nicholas Lyndhurst. Jimmy Chinn has also written for television including some episodes of Emmerdale. Albert Make Us Laugh is based upon his childhood experiences at school in the north of England DOWNLOAD THE PROGRAMME HERE (Adobe Acrobat reader required) - 480Kb
