Playtime over, catching up

Apr 11, 2011 10:24

So, Measure for Measure is over. While I wish we could have spent a little longer on it, and (contrariwise) it's always a pity to have spent so many months preparing for only a couple hours' actual performing, nonetheless I'm relieved it's over and done with and I can look for other things to do with my time and mental energy ( Read more... )

It delights me to hear about the prunes.

Sorry to have missed the production--other commitments both days.
Also sorry that I won't be at Carolingian 40th Anniversary; it conflicts with our local Norwich event, the Regency Assembly Ball and Jane Austen weekend.
Balin the Fairhaired (who is autocratting the Ball) wonders why he didn't get a lovely invitation as I did. Probably because Baron Jehan du Lac doesn't have his mundane mailing address, I told him.
But Norwich is rather like the French Riviera in that way--full of deposed aristocrats, or at least two retired Landed Barons.

Pretty much the only way the two are alike, I should have thought. Well, and the sea is to the south.

(And - don't tell Balin if you don't think he could take it - but I suspect that most of the outreach effort is going to former Carolingians themselves, more than to former friends and neighbors.)

It's the ONLY way the two are alike--otherwise, they're more like chalk and cheese.

I figured as much, but as Balin said, he WAS at Carplingia's first May event.

yes it is a comedy

Yes: from the first read. What great fun! Watching Pompey unfold over the three months of rehearsal was a hilarious, glorious privilege.

Next time, I hope we share more time actually on stage together.

Oh yes!
A comedy AND a mystery, I should have added.

I have added you on my DW filters, in anticipation of whenever you move over. (It's simpler.)

I'm glad your floor is dry - and I'm very sorry I didn't get to see your Stewed Prune Dish. ;)
