"Tale of Italian Passion"

West Norwood's Bell Theatre, formerly the main theatre of the South London Theatre Centre, rings in a new epoch this week with an absorbing production of the Arthur Miller classic "A View from the Bridge".

The play, once ludicrously banned by the Lord Chamberlain's office on account of a kiss savagely inflicted by Eddie Carbone on the Sicilian immigrant Rodolpho, is a sombre tale of jealosy and passion.

It is a happy chance, that in Ken Lucas' production, the lawyer Alfieri, narrator of the action, is played by Philip Piacentino, himself an Italian-American before becoming one of SLTC's most familiar figures.
