The crisis comes when they find that, far from a house with a little bit of garden, they are to live in a warrenous block of flats.. PLAYWRIGHTS: Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall co-wrote some of the most highly-acclaimed and successful plays of the time. 'Billy Liar' and 'Whistle Down the Wind' are just two of their well known plays, but they also wrote the screenplays for the TV series 'Budgie' and 'Worzel Gummidge' BHTC NOTES: Due to the sudden illness of Marion Laughton (playing Deanna Hesseltine), from the night of the dress rehearsal, Betty Dann took over the part and according to the review (see below) did an excellent job.
