Monologuist and singing Comedian. 15 min in 1. Not as strong as I had expected. Material is chestnutty and songs failed to reach the vital point. Work lacks spontaneity. May pull up later in the week. Can’t expect a Jim Thornton in this spot, stage manager says, but we would like the audience to forget their troubles a little longer and stronger than Clarke made them this afternoon.
