What a fabulous day rehearsing for “100:The Day Our World Changed” at The Lost Gardens of Heligan. We started in Mevagissey on the quay as the production will next Sunday and waved off the new recruits with a beautiful and very moving old song called ‘The Soldier’s Farewell’. From there we moved on up to Heligan’s lovely gardens and continued discovering how the songs we have been rehearsing are to fit into the production. Click on any photo in the Gallery to get a sense of the rehearsals and an idea of the beauty of the gardens – and if you live in Cornwall or are visiting next weekend, come to join in this amazing immersive theatrical production involving the local community. It will be brilliant.

It’s going to be brilliant! I’m okay thanks, despite being on my feet most of the day yesterday. The thrill of it all meant I didn’t feel the pain! I need more days like that. I even slept all night too! 🙂

You’d love Cornwall, Marilyn – the coastline, the villages, the hills, the air – it’s just beautiful. Maybe one day you’ll visit! 🙂
