DEAR JOHHNY BEATTIE

The sad passing of JOHNNY BEATTIE MBE

A true Scottish comedy Legend,I was very fortunate to work with Johnny on many shows at his beloved Gaiety Theatre Ayr and at The Pavillon Glasgow. Such a lovely warm man, Always looked forward in working with him... I learnt so much from him, he knew the Gaiety audience like the back of his hand,In his first spot would always reel off the names of the audience with out it on paper ! He had scripts of every Comedy sketch possible, watching him at his craft in rehearsals with Anne Fields was hilarious ! A true gentlemen of the Theatre, I hope Jamie is there with all your friends for rehearsals for "The Gaiety Whirl 'high in the sky!

Love and thoughts to Maureen and Louise Beattie and all family and friends x
