And don’t forget the vivid purply blue patches which proved to be violets. And the may in bloom, as well as the greeny yellow of the trees in bud, peculiar to spring in England.

And the reason we went was to support Kit, who finished 10th out of 200 entrants, just over a minute behind the winner. All of the family who live in England were there to cheer him up the cobbles on Michaelgate.

John Fitzpatrick on the accordion and other instruments is hardly “oompah music”! Nor is Martin Carthy’s wonderful singing.

After seeing this production, I have to think of Caliban as an alter ego of Prospero, rather than of Ariel–quite a radical revision. Miranda was much wilder than usual, too–she had a number of untamed mannerisms to remind us of her isolated, male upbringing, despite her memory of having 3 or 4 women to look after her in her previous courtly existence. It is quite a male play, in fact. The African setting was stunning.
