A nd, according to the artistic director o f W est E nd S tu dio T heatre (W.E.S.T.), it's the only com edy the D ram a Series is offering this season. "It borders on farce - rom antic com edy/farce. It is a farce scenario, but it turns," says Yo M ustafa, adding that, unlike m ost farces, it does have a bit o f tw ist to it. "T his is the reason why I liked it. I liked the w ay it e n d e d ...It ends Read the news, book a cruiseP in a very nice w a y ...P e o "It ends in a very ple get w hat they d eserv e...S o m e tim es good nice way...People things do happen to good get what they people, and it's nice." deserve...Some Any Wednesday is a play w ith a sim ple cast o f times good things four but the plot, apparent do happen to good ly, is anything b u t sim ple. people and itfs nice.* It involves a m illionaire businessm an w ho sets up his young m istress in the executive suite. H ow ever, as in all farces, an m isunder standing ensues that causes num erous com plications. In this case the b u sin essm an 's w ife m istakes his m istress for the w ife o f her h u sb an d 's client. Tw o o f the four actors in this com edy are new to the stage, says M ustafa, creating an unique but pleasant envi ronm ent at rehearsals. "It's a very happy w orking place. People are looking forw ard to com ing to rehearsals. T h ey 're w orking very, very w ell together," he says. "I think it's going to be fun." N o t w anting to give too m uch o f the p lo t away, M ustafa quickly turns his thoughts to next season, reveal ing that W .E.S.T. has already secured the rights for Oliver, a story that centres around children. A nd a cast involving m any young people fits rig h t into the artistic d irecto r's plans since W .E.S.T. has been offering acting w orkshops fo r children o v er the past y ear and is running a dram a cam p this sum m er. C onsequently, M ustafa w ill have a large pool o f young actors to choose from w hen he begins auditions for Oliver.
