IF I CATCH ALPHONSO TONIGHT: Tonight, Friday, 7.30pm, Alciston and Selmeston Village Hall. Miles Jenner, of Harvey’s Brewery fame, has written and is performing a one-man play recalling the life of Billy Merson, one of the great Music Hall stars. In 1910 Merson first performed his song If I Catch Alphonso Tonight at Brighton’s Theatre Royal. The song turned him into a super star. Miles, with Roger Roser, who accompanies him on the piano, will perform extracts from 16 of Merson’s songs in the play. The evening will be held as a fundraiser for the project to conserve the paintings in Berwick Church which is currently being run by Berwick (Sussex) Conservation Trust and the Berwick PCC.
