Underway!

Well, the tour officially started on Tuesday, but it's taken a couple of days to get the tour diary up and running. Anyway - here it is!

The kick-off was SEEVIC College in Benfleet, Essex; James L and Andrew O ran a workshop, with Andrew P and Catherine involved in some way - I wasn't there, so I can't say what happened! Then we were supposed to do a performance in the evening, but it was all a bit rushed and in the end we just did a full rehearsal with James L's friend from SEEVIC, David, watching (and contributing the mind).

And - it fit together well. Some great music, lights coming in nicely around the story - I think we all left feeling fairly pleased with ourselves.

The journey back was less successful; we got lost around Chelmsford, and wound up figuring out a route back via Stansted while sitting in a service stop (where James L locked himself in the women's toilets, presumably to stem the tide of admirers).

Now a few days rest before Cambridge, where we open at the start of next month.
