My friend Kerry Lee Crabbe, a playwright, screenwriter, lyricist and teacher, who has died aged 77, described himself as a “freelance human”.

This led to Kerry’s happiest experience: adapting Pinter’s novel The Dwarfs for the stage. It was filmed and screened on BBC4 in 2002 and produced at the Tricycle theatre in 2003.
