Hello, and thank you for visiting my site. I hope that you'll return often and always find something of interest about my world and what inspires me to pick up a pen. (This is a figure of speech, unfortunately. My handwriting is terrible!) Here's what I've been up to recently...

Evita: a cracking display of local talent!

I always enjoy a good musical and the Ripon Operatic Society’s production of ‘Evita’ was no exception. So good I saw it twice, in fact. Once at the dress rehearsal and again later in the week.

 

It was my absolute pleasure to review the show for the local papers. This is how my review appeared, only lightly edited. The Society has the full version, but I’d be happy to send a copy to anyone else who wishes to see it.
