↑ According to Supple, this account consists of "edited excerpts" from Doors Open. The Clove Club Newsletter is edited by G. L. ("Willie") Watkins, who also edited 'Fortune's Fool': A Life of Joe Brearley: The Man Who Taught Harold Pinter (Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, Eng.: TwigBooks, 2008). Brearley taught English literature and directed school theatre productions at Hackney Downs School, which both Supple and Pinter attended from 1942 to 1949 and 1948, respectively; in this memoir Supple recalls Pinter's performance as Romeo in Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet, as directed by Brearley, in which Supple played Mercutio, and Brearley's influence on Pinter and other students.
