Condolences from the Crescent Theatre

Dear David,

I know that you must be inundated with messages and have a million and one things to do, but may I, on behalf of Jim's many, many friends at the Crescent Theatre in Birmingham, offer you and your family our most sincerest condolences on your sad loss.

Jim has only been a member of the Crescent for a relatively short time but in that time has made a lasting impression on all that came into contact with him and especially those who worked alongside him. I have had the honour to have worked with him in the three outings he had for the theatre - working with him in 'Pygmalion' and directing him in 'Girl's Night Out' and 'The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby'. Jim was never one to be backwards in coming forwards and thus, was an integral part of some of theatre's most notable productions over the last couple of years and it has been nothing but a joy and a pleasure to have known Jim, we are all the poorer for his passing.

Obviously, it goes without saying, but if there is anything that I or the theatre can do to help in any way, either now or in the future, then please do not hesitate to ask.

Yours faithfully,

Ian Thompson
The Crescent Theatre, Birmingham
