BETTE/CAVETT
Its 1971.
The dawn of the decade of trash. Shes the 63 year old Queen of Hollywood. Hes the host who gets the guests his rivals cant get near. Meet Bette Davis. Meet Dick Cavett.
Using verbatim text and studded with some hilariously un-pc commercials, Bette/Cavett re-imagines one of the most candid TV meetings of all time sliding down the rose-tinted sunglasses of our perceptions of the old days and challenging our tendency to glamorise the past.
Coming up Ms Davis on drink and drugs in Hollywood and losing her virginity… Well be right back!
