Opening Night -- only 5 years after Mr Farquhar started talking to me

Tonight is the opening night in Derry for my play, By Mr Farquhar... Five years after his voice started talking to me in a most compelling and exciting fashion!

Can't be there myself for opening night which is a bit like sending your child to school for the first time and they carry on in, chatting to a friend, without looking back. All grown up!

In case anyone reading this may be looking for an excuse to visit the magnificent walled city, bookings for the show are through the City of Culture box office which is run by The Forum. The number is 028 7126 4455 or www.millenniumforum.co.uk

For those of you who are coming along, THANK YOU! For those of you who would love to come along and can't, THANK YOU TOO! And for all of you, so many of you, who have encouraged and supported me through the ups and downs of getting this play performed, A HUGE BIG THANK OF A HUG.
