''Redlands'' to Play Chicester

A play inspired by an infamous drug bust will soon be making its premiere.

Redlands is about the 1967 raid on Keith Richards' country house (which was named Redlands) in West Sussex, England.

Keith and Mick Jagger spent a night in jail, and lurid stories appeared about Mick's girlfriend Marianne Faithfull, who was wrapped in a fur rug.

The sentences were overturned after a public outcry and Times editorial which defended the two members of the Rolling Stones.

The play runs from September 20-October 18 at the Chicester Festival Theatre.

Visit cft.org.uk/events/redlands for details, including photos of the cast. The picture of Jasper Talbot, who plays Jagger, is most striking as the actor does resembles him.
