Description
Telstar is a satirical comedy that tells the true story of Joe Meek, the world's first independent record producer. With phenomenal early success and a troubled soul, Meek's life was marked by bad luck, depression, heartbreak, and paranoia.
Far from being a maudlin tale, this story is a sharply observed exploration of a complex and fascinating figure. The play opened at the New Ambassadors Theatre in London's West End in June 2005, with Con O'Neill delivering a blistering central performance as Meek.
This stranger than fiction true story offers a unique glimpse into the world of British pop in the early 1960s, and is a testament to the enduring power of creativity and talent.
