      RESIDENT ALIEN by Tim Fountain
      Based on the life and writings of Quentin Crisp.
      Performed by Roy Ward.


      "This room is my dressing room and the world is my stage..."

      Come upstairs to Quentin Crisp's famously filthy New York apartment where England's best loved Stately Old Homo is waiting to tell you how to be happy. Life. Love. Marriage (gay, royal and otherwise). Mass murder. Margaret Thatcher. Sex. And the secret of never having your heart broken. The 90-year-old Professor of Style explains it all and delivers his personal recipe for self-fulfilment.

      "Never try to keep up with the Joneses. Drag them down to your level - it's cheaper."
