Footnote: Many ask, ‘Where does the name of your theatre company come from? Veteran Old Groyne and company founder Stephen Harrison explains, 'There once was a sign,’ he says, ‘just off Southwold beach in splendid Suffolk that warned would-be waders to ‘BEWARE OF OLD GROYNES.’ The name stuck. No one who’s seen any of our productions considers it inappropriate.
