IT IS BRIGHTON, 1959, AND THE THEATRE AT THE END OF THE PIER IS HAVING ITS BEST SUMMER SEASON IN YEARS. RONNIE, A BRILLIANT YOUNG MAGICIAN, AND EVIE, HIS DAZZLING ASSISTANT, ARE TOP OF THE BILL, DRAWING AUDIENCES EACH NIGHT. MEANWHILE, JACK – JACK ROBINSON, AS IN ‘BEFORE YOU CAN SAY’ – IS EVERYONE’S FAVOURITE COMPERE, A BORN ENTERTAINER, HOLDING THE WHOLE SHOW TOGETHER.
