day two.six

Hugely positive reception to our first night in Lichfield Cathedral. So great to see everyone buzzing after such a special evening - and little wonder with Alfie flinging his bowtie into the audience. While I didn't manage to catch Alfie post performance, Elin, David and Martin all independently mentioned what a great night they'd had. The WNO platform guys are just putting the last of the timpani on as I type.
Worth mentioning here as well that just before Sandi went onstage, she mentioned her latest project, Theatre Live!, which has brought back live TV to TV for the first time in 30 years. Hosted by Sandi, and screening weekly on Sky TV (but also eventually available online here), Theatre Live! is best summed up as

Six bestselling authors; five established directors, twenty astonishing actors, and six brand new plays – broadcast live in high definition…

They currently have four works in production, and Sandi came directly from that today for tonight's show.
Just off for a quick beer with Ilia Mihaylov before hitting the sack in readiness for tomorrow's Georgian Market - another early start..
