More victims for Kerry Jewel

Back in the 80’s I ran a small production company and went on the road with a particular dinner theatre show. The producer of the show went bust and I finished up not getting paid – I dumped a couple of grand.

That producer was Kerry Jewel and he is back in the news this week as another of his productions folded and left suppliers and performers in the lurch. Kerry Jewel was also the producer behind the failed mega production of “Pan”.

Some people never learn.
