their success with the critically-acclaimed band, “The Gathering”, the du arc setting out on a series of intimate UK shows that will dip into their respective catalogues.


by Julie Magee ; From his early days in such bands as Foth-


eringay (with the late Sandy Denny) and Fair- port Convention, to notable performances and/or recordings with Gerry Rafferty, Robert Plant, Joan Armatrading, Johnny Hallyday, George Harrison, Cliff Richard, Chris Rea, Warren Zevon, Bonnie Raitt, Hank Marvin, Roy Orbison, Nancy Griffith, The Yardbirds, and The Hellecasters, Jerry Donahue epito­ mises the consummate guitarists’ guitarist. The son o f the late 1940s/50s Big Band


leader Sam Donahue and TV and film actress Patricia Donahue, brother of the late Marc Donahue and father of singer/songwritcr Kristina Donahue, Jerry has combined the Celtic folk music of his adopted home in the UK with his American rock, blues and coun­ try roots to arrive at his own, unique, unmis­ takable style. Doug Morter launched his music career in Jt'flyiR?.)Yith.X-Ijiinte.t Muskett,,suppon-

REVIEW: “Pygmalion” at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester, until June 19th. BOX Office: 0161 833 9833. Website: www.royalexchange.’ co.uk


Greg Hersov’s production of


George Bernard Shaw’s most well known play “Pygmalion” at the Royal Exchange Thea­ tre is witty and stylish. Cush Jumbo is a delight­


ful Eliza Doolittle and gives a wonderfully comic perform­ ance in the tea party scene, when she discusses the demise of her relative in exaggerated Received Pronunciation, pep­ pered with expressions like “done her in” and “ladling gin into her”. Her carefully pos­ tured walk is also very funny; Simon Robson is an intrigu­


tions in moments of irony or


discomfort. These two are supported


by an excellent cast. Terence Wilton is a kindly, lovable Pickering. Gaye Brown and Ian Bartholomew give clever performances as Mrs Higgins, Henry’s long-suffering mother, and Alfred Doolittle, Eliza’s conniving father. Ashley Martin-Davis’ de­


sign gives us a sense of the elegance of London Society in 1912 and the costumes of


■ Eliza and mother and daugh­ ter Eynsford Hill are enviably elegant.


■ ;.. ■ This is Shaw at his best,


amusing, full of subtle barbs about the inequalities of class


ing Henry Higgins. His face ex­ presses a variety of lugubrious _ expressions and he flings his legs into extraordinary contor­


and gender and not too much o f the customary Shavian polemic, except in the final act when Eliza and Higgins square up to one another in a surprisingly modern exchange of views. Hersov has remained


true to Shaw’s origi­ nal ambiguous end­ ing and avoided any sentimentality. This production provides a most enjoyable • evening in a superb

In 1985, after releasing his first solo record, Doug started recording the first of two records with guitar virtuoso Jerry Donahue, which became the basis for The Backroom Boys, which still tours whenever schedules permits.

seen at the Library in “The Good Soul of Szechuan”, but seen by me in so many good productions over the past 15 years. They will be supported by an excellent team, including Malcolm James, Simon Harrison and Leigh Symonds. The Library Theatre Company is thank­
