The play was widely performed in regional cities all over Britain, and was presented at the Phoenix Theatre in New York City with Jeff Goldblum in the lead role and was made into a successful ITV television play.[4][5] City Sugar followed the story of the young waitress, Nicola, whom the audience first encountered in Poliakoff’s Hitting Town. StorylineThe story charts a week in the life of a DJ, Leonard Brazil, as he launches what he calls the competition of the century aimed directly at a youth audience. It is a promotional campaign designed to whip up excitement amongst the station's audience in preparation for a super-group's visit to the city. As Leonard runs the competition, he is tormented by self-loathing and takes out his anger on those around him. He singles out Nicola Davies, one of his listeners and engineers, and she came into the studio where he purposefully humiliated her.[6] Further InformationThe TV production was made with Scottish TV and Film Enterprises for ITV. In the television version Nicola Davies was played by Veronica Quilligan and Tim Curry plays the DJ Leonard Brazil. It was shot on film on location in Glasgow.[6] City Sugar has been included as a suggested text in UK GCSE curriculum in drama.[7] Hereford Plays published an edition of City Sugar in 1989 with scene-by-scene analysis, structured questions and assignment suggestions for GCSE.[8]The play’s text is published by Bloomsbury[9] and Samuel French.[10] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/stephen-poliakoff-on-stage-and-screen-9781408145920/|title=Stephen Poliakoff on Stage and Screen|last=Robin Nelson|first=|date=|website=Bloomsbury Publishing|publisher=|access-date=2017-01-13}} 2. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/news/2003/mar/10/guardianobituaries.artsobituaries|title=Adam Faith|last=Laing|first=Dave|date=2003-03-10|newspaper=The Guardian|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077|access-date=2017-01-13}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/theatre/emilia-joins-our-awards-gala-6943435.html|title=Emilia joins our awards gala|date=2003-11-19|newspaper=Evening Standard|language=en-GB|access-date=2017-01-13}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.stephenpoliakoff.com/new-page/|title=City Sugar (1978)|last=|first=|date=|website=Stephen Poliakoff Official Website|publisher=|access-date=2017-01-13}} 5. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1978/06/06/archives/stage-poliakoff-city-sugar-djs-daydreams.html|title=Stage: Poliakoff ‘City Sugar’|last=Eder|first=Richard|date=1978-06-06|newspaper=The New York Times|issn=0362-4331|access-date=2017-01-13}} 6. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.stephenpoliakoff.com/theatre-plays/|title=Theatre Plays|last=|first=|date=|website=Stephen Poliakoff Official Website|publisher=|access-date=2017-01-13}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/drama/drama_wjec/performancefromatext/suggestedreading1.shtml|title=BBC - GCSE Bitesize: Suggested reading|access-date=2017-01-13}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.abebooks.co.uk/9780435225810/City-Sugar-Hereford-Plays-Stephen-0435225812/plp|title=9780435225810: City Sugar (Hereford Plays) - AbeBooks - Stephen Poliakoff: 0435225812|website=www.abebooks.co.uk|access-date=2017-01-13}} 9. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/poliakoff-plays-1-9780413624604/|title=Poliakoff Plays: 1|last=Stephen Poliakoff|first=|date=|website=Bloomsbury Publishing|publisher=|access-date=2017-01-13}} 10. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.samuelfrench.co.uk/p/4472/city-sugar|title=City Sugar|last=Stephen Poliakoff|first=|date=|website=www.samuelfrench.co.uk|publisher=|access-date=2017-01-13}}
