We live on a 70' narrowboat and slowly cruise the English canal system but it still isn't completely fitted out. It isn't even fitted out to any kind of reasonable standard. But it will be. Some day.
Oh, audience. Don't let the next question be 'what did you see?' because I really can't remember (typical male), but it was something by Shakespeare and may have had Patrick Stewart in - although that may have been somewhere else and it may have been Star Trek...
But it was fun!
I remember one time my wife and I stayed in a slightly run-down B&B (being students we were used to that) in Stratford and were kept up most of the night by a Swedish couple doing what Swedes do. We were going to 'show them how it was done' but that good old British stiff upper lip overrode any other desires.
If you get the chance to eat out, may I recommend Lambs on the main street just across from you. Great food and my wife's favourite place to eat whenever we end up in Stratford.
I'm no architect as (I'll leave that to my brother, who is) and I wouldn't know a pig's ear from a stunner. It's just going to be different, that's as much as I can tell.
No more eating in Stratford for us until next time but I'll bare it in mind. And I thought Swedes just sang dodgy pop songs.
Ashby canal or thereabouts (hopefully), United Kingdom
"You work with wood."
"Yes dear."
"Well you could fit it out."
"Fit what out."
"A sailaway narrowboat."
"I'm a bowyer. It's on a different scale. There are no plumbing, electrical or heating problems with English longbows."
"Yes, but you could learn. It's still mainly working with wood."
"If you say so dear."
Lisa - that's her. Usually refered to in the expression "Yes dear" or "Whatever you say dear". Occasionally found saying, "I'm a joy to live with and don't you forget it."
Terri - that's the daughter. An actor don't you know. Usually working but occasionally 'resting'. Currently on tour in Scotland.
Sam - the dog. As in, "That bloody dog" or "Who's dog is it anyway". NB In this pecking order she's just above the outlaws but she actually thinks she's at the top.
Pearl - one the the inlaws (outlaws). Swings a mean duster.
Ken - the other half of the outlaws. A good man with a drill.
Other performances (160 or so at present although some haven't been updated for some time)

Thanks. It's a big building, isn't it? Many a happy time had inside...
Acting, backstage or audience?

the new theater looks just as unimaginative as the one it replaced known i believe as the jam factory.
