A Question of Errol Flynn – A New Play by Karen Lynne
A Question of Errol Flynn visits an older Errol Flynn on his Jamaican property where he rails against his biographer, girlfriend and loathed mother. The play offers an honest, funny and deeply moving, portrayal of a “star on the wane”.
It has been seen in a staged workshop at The Aldwych Theatre in London’s West End and at Lauderdale House in Highgate London. It is, as you might expect, a show for an adult audience.
There were plans to tour A QUESTION OF ERROL FLYNN in early 2020 but Covid-19 meant we had to shelve those plans until 2022.
We have been awarded a grant for developing an addiction workshop in tandem with the show which is being generously funded by Ipswich Borough Council SEEDS FOR CHANGE initiative.

Come Dance With Me
Missing Pieces Theatre Show
Come Dance With Me – written by Karen Lynne and Graham Howes and Directed by Graham Howes.
Come Dance With Me is a show for all ages about a working class family, for all the family, about a family at war. It spans from the recession through the Second World War to the ten quid tourists of the 1950s.
When life gets too much our heroes turn to ballroom dancing or to the Saturday cinema where they fantasise about being Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers or Eleanor Powell. The family faces considerable obstacles with great humour and grit and all have big dreams – but not everybody gets what they want. It is based on a true story of Karen Lynne’s Family.
We developed a workshop in a Research and Development phase with the help of Action on Disability, Young Carers, and a school which we toured in tandem with the show to select venues in 2019.
We have received expressions of interest about developing the play for a TV series and we are working on this currently.
Star choreographer Richard Marcel from Strictly Come Dancing:
Come Dance With Me features amazing dance routines from ‘choreographer to the stars,’ and veteran Strictly Come Dancing choreographer, Richard Marcel – who is in the Guinness Book of World Records as master of most dance styles. He recently choreographed the feature film: CUBAN FURY starring Nick Frost and has choreographed Madonna Britney and Kylie.
