I apologise to Susan Haywood and Melville Theatre

I would like to take this oppitunity to apologise to Susan Heywood and Melville theatre for my recent conduct. I am a very sick young gentleman. I am an alcholoic. I apolgise to the cast (Whom i respect) and all involved at melville. I am deeply sorry. I truely hope I recover from this awful disease cause im causing everyone, more im portantly me great harm. If I have ever said anything that alarms or causes distress please dont take it personally. I'm a very sick man. I need support and friendship. Because I don't like who I am becoming. I am so so sorry for my conduct. Just please bare with me. I will beat this disease. I am so sorry.

Leon, a friend of mine who is a reformed alcoholic, and is now working with alcoholics anonymous, said the first step to recovery, is admitting to yourself that you have a problemm. It took him three marriages, and thirty years to do so. Your post here suggests you're smarter than that. I salute you for having the courage here, to make a public apology to the Melville crew, and wish you well in your quest to overcome your addiction. Johnny Grim

Leon has apologised to me personally, and now publicly. I accept his apology and wish to state that I bear him no ill will. I sincerely hope that he does make a full recovery. The role he was to have played has been taken over by Jeff Hansen. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to him for taking on a major role at such short notice, and with such good grace. We have delayed the opening of the season of 'Absent Friends' by one week. We will now play for a two week season, opening on Thursday 30th April. I would like to thank the other five members of the cast, and all at Melville Theatre for their unwavering support during this difficult time. Sue Hayward.

Dear Sue ans Melville I wish your season nothing more than a wonderful success. Leon

nothing more to say, really - take care.

Sincere best wishes to Leon, Jeff, Sue, Cast and Crew. Have booked and am looking forward to seeing the play.
