RAPIERS ARE GO!

Relaxed Rapiers Before "Made in Britain" Finale

Nathan J. Hulse snapped this dressing room scene with (from left) Neil Ainsby, Colin Pryce-Jones, John Tuck, Steven "Cliff Richard" Halliday and Mike Berry in mostly folded-arm repose Thursday at Worthing's Pavilion Theatre, the final night of the current Made in Britain tour.

I see plenty of denim on hand, but only one cuppa tea.

Says Nathan: "We're hoping to start a new show next year, still featuring Cliff Richard and Billy Fury tributes, plus some added names from the early '60s."
