  • Elaine, did you ever review Clare Garradas stage play "Parkinson's." Its a hard hitting, gritty drama, set in the ante room of a Liverpool Dock Road brothel. The two sole characters, Jack and Jirk, remain on stage for three hours, seemly waiting an eternity for never appearing fat Spanish prostitute "La Gorda."
