A life in two acts

Article Abstract:

Playwright Roy MacGregor was a gentle man, but this was not reflected in his first play, 'Our Own Kind,' which deals with council estate racism. His life was clearly divided into two sections. In the first, he was unable to get in touch with his talent, and was extremely restless. He became very unhappy, and drank so much alcohol that he nearly died. In the second section, he was encouraged by therapists and counsellors to begin writing, and this filled the gap in his life.
