It is about a vicar, who is tempted by the devil Valda Valder offering a sponsorship deal for dubious return favours. This play was one of Ayckbourn s less successful works, but the production was marred most of all by the death of a member of the cast, Sophie Winter, who collapsed the afternoon before the final Scarborough performance and died the day.

Father Ray s Sponsor a Child Foundation FRSAC is a not for profit Charitable organization United States 501 c 3 registered United States charity which focus on assisting needy children primarily in Thailand and also in the United States. History The Father Ray Sponsor a Child Foundation FRSAC was started in memory of Father Ray Brennan who worked for nearly 40 years in and around the town of Pattaya Thailand until his death in 2003. Ray initially established an orphanage there because one day he found an abandoned baby on the rectory doorstep. He eventually established a multitude of projects which are fully documented in the article about the Father Ray Foundation . However US Residents who supported the various projects found that they were unable to make tax deductible contributions directly to Fr Ray and his projects. When Ray died, Ron Small from the United States formed the Father Ray s Sponsor a Child Foundation to support the projects that Ray initiated plus many others. The US foundation permits US contributors to deduct their contributions. The foundation is an IRS approved 501c 3 charity incorporated in the state of New Jersey. Mr. Small who operates the foundation has spent much time in Thailand assisting the various projects there and overseeing the efficient use of funds collected in the US in support of the projects. Operations Father Ray s Sponsor a Child Foundation focuses on supporting disadvantaged and vulnerable children across Thailand. It helps provide full care, including accommodation, education and medical care to over 850 children. It also helps support health and nutrition projects to over 1500 children. The charity helps support a range of projects across Thailand run by its partner organizations, the Father Ray Foundation in Pattaya, Thailand and the Thai Children s Trust in London. In addition, the foundation provides support via the Thai Children s Trust to many other projects including the Camillian social center in Rayong Camillian Center ... more details
