There's a Wikipedia entry on my friend Frances Cuka and it's accurate as far as I can tell. During childhood she took part in Children's Hour. At Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop she created the file of Jo in A Taste of Honey. She has worked in the Royal Shakespeare Company and at the Royal Court theatre, followed by film and television work.
