Escapism
This was taken several weeks ago when out with Sally, playing around with our cameras. Well, she was giving me a lesson! Falmouth Bay on a sunny August afternoon...
Life has been a bit stressful recently, but the other night, eight of us went to see Kneehigh's Version of Rebecca at the Hall for Cornwall. It was amazing - I'm a huge fan of the book but the characters were just how I imagined, the sets were amazing and there was the right balance of humour, drama and pathos. I hate to say it but frequently when seeing plays I get the fidgets.
This time I was transfixed, glued to my seat, couldn't take my eyes off the stage. It was really one of the best pieces of theatre I;ve ever seen - and we all agreed on that.
So if it comes to a theatre anywhere near you - do go and see it. I can promise a truly wonderful evening.
An event like that takes you out of yourself - you forget about your worries and are transported to another place and time.
It really was theatre at its best. And life is that much easier afterwards, when granted a few hours escapism, in the hands of professionals.

So envious, Sue, that you got to see Rebecca. I've been reading about the Knee High production, and it's all been good. I believe Tristan Sturrock, who plays Maxim de Winter, is also appearing as Zacky Martin in the new Poldark series.
Glad you enjoyed it. xx
That's right, Rena. He was brilliant as Max de Winter - do see it if it's near you! XX
It sounds as if you've had a hectic time - hugely well done on the radio interview! I hope that the stress eases. x
Thanks Chris - yours too! X
Just been having a look through my copy of Cornwall Today. You've been a busy lady, Sue! xx
Rena - that was all a while ago! And nothing else commissioned at the moment......
