Monday 11th August 2008
Good day today. I went through to Edinburgh early, after dithering about whether to let the train take the strain or shout expletives at speed fascists on the M8 behind the wheel of my trusty Punto. The Punto won, only because I had to pick up Anne’s stage manager bag of tricks from her house, and then dash back home again to check that I’d turned the cooker off after making my ‘dark, black awakener’( thankyou Robin Fitzpatrick for that lovely phrase) cup of Lavazza coffee in my blue machinetta. I’d turned it off, phew! Into the car again and dashed like a maniac( my sister calls riding in the car beside me ; the white knuckle ride)through to edinburgh for a talk on touring after the Fringe. It was a bit overwhelming as there is SO much to do, so many people to contact, so many folk to invite to see the show, in the hope that they like it and pick it up for touring. I gave a flyer to two of the promoters who were there…I hope they’ll be able to come. I decided that mornings must be spent chasing these folk. Tomorrow I will set to!Show went well today. A new , young company are in before us, thoosands of them. What strikes me is there energy and verve and sheer determination to make their festival experience work for them. They are a lovely bunch who have worked very hard to get to Edinburgh… and very kindly have allowed us access into the dressing area in time for our half( thirty-five minutes before the show goes up). I hope they do really well.
