What a brilliant night. Back in The Citz for first time in 7 years, and the old lady is looking fantastic. And what a heart-rending, powerful, thoughtful and ultimately uplifting piece of theatre to open with. Congratulations & thank you to all involved.

I promise all my posts will not be about the world outside my window! But look! First frosts of the year, making the world all clean. A day for lighting the fire and coorying in.
