busy 30 May 2011
I have just had an unprecedented 2 days off and have nothing to show for myself but hours of sleep, the reading of a great jo nesbo thriller and the worry that I will have forgotten my HAPPY DAYS lines by the time I have to say them aloud for a paying public tomorrow evening at the Crucible here in Sheffield…altogether this seemingly benign UK bank holiday has delivered terror for the P Mc. In other news, performing the show is as terrifying as expected, but a huge joy that audiences are reacting so positively to it. I will miss it enormously when we finish this run but, who knows, perhaps it will resurface elsewhere, that would be tremendous.
I will leave Sheffield after a wonderful 6 weeks but also bogged down by the amount of STUFF i have accrued – mostly books, trousers and dresses, most of which I probably don’t ‘need’, whatever that has to do with anything. I’m finding the ease with which one can buy online scary – delivered promptly to the door, and usually top notch items. ARGH. And it does mean I leave with more luggage than I arrived with. Baggage, my dears…
