The Dead Side Of The Mike (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
He had had the same experience in the theatre. He would see a production of a play with a central performance of such power that he thought it must be definitive. Then, years later, with another actor in the rôle, he would see the play again and find the new interpretation, though totally different, equally compelling. And, as a strong central performance sometimes can, he would find that it often changed all the performances around it, changed the shape of the whole play, so that he left the theatre feeling he had seen a completely different work. So it was when he recast the script of Andrea Gower’s and Danny Klinger’s deaths. With Keith Nicholls bowing out and having his part taken by Dave Sheridan, a new play emerged. And all the supporting roles of evidence and logic shifted and changed their emphasis to accommodate the new character. It clarified many things. Some bits made a lot more sense. The whole elaborate procedure of sending musical clues over the air became much more acceptable if the person who wanted to send them actually did the speaking; from the start he had felt uneasy about the opportunities for error with Keith feeding the clues to an unwitting Sheridan.
