Human Nature: Conformity and monotony, even when they are embellished with a froth of novelty, are not attributes of developing and economically vigorous cities. They are attributes of stagnant settlements. [From The Economy of Cities by Jane Jacobs, 1969]
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was presented as
four stage shows, all of which included Marvin. The four shows were:
May 1979. The Science Fiction Theatre of Liverpool, ICA theatre,
London. Directed by Ken Campbell.
January 1980. Theatr Clwyd Welsh, UK tour. Adapted and directed
by Jonathan Petherbridge. An image
(0.1 MBytes) is available.
July 1980. The Rainbow Theatre, London. Directed by Ken Campbell.
October 1981. Theatr Clwyd Welsh, UK tour. Directed by Jonathan
Petherbridge.
David Learner played Marvin in the two Theatr Clwyd Welsh productions
and The Rainbow Theatre production. I would love to know who played
Marvin in The Science Fiction Theatre of Liverpool production.
If anyone has other (or better) photos of Marvin in these stage
shows then I would love to add them to this Web page.
