Bringing back Memories of London
Re- Member - ing

Thank you for your good wishes. Here I was just casting the runes, looking for the auspicious, keeping vigil, raking the coals to rise above doubt and fears and agonies past, and be able to waft on a stream of pure smoke to join my tribe again, what and where I was born to be, no matter.... Lettice Douffet is a story teller deluxe! We are story tellers born and it is a high calling -- but we always have to act like it doesn't matter so much and make remarks and shrug -- when we love it so much and it is so holy. I want to be happy here for a little time. For the 9 performances!! So I thank you for your very gracious kindness.

I must comment on this line learning before rehearsals begin - you really can see what a fine author Peter Shaffer is! After "The Royal Hunt of the Sun," "Equus" and "Amadeus" he wasn't just whistling Dixie when he wrote "Lettice and Lovage."
Lettice says "Without danger, Mr. Bardolf, there is no theatre." So we start.
P.S. They say that using dashes is for people too lazy to figure out the grammar.
