After Everyman - Thank You
Twenty shows, a little over a month, and a lot of Good and Bad Deeds - thus ends the tale of The Summoning of Everyman. I'm not saying I won't perform it again, but I won't take it on tour again in this way and not for a while. I've learnt a lot of good lessons about how to do a tour like this and that means the next touring show - Metal Harvest - will be a leaner, meaner, performance machine. Well, sort of.
Special Thanks to Jacqueline Cooper Clark - who acted as FOH and has been tirelessly posting about the show online - Belinda Hasler, Phil & Rachel Hope, Bryan Thurlow, Jennifer Davis; Mark Saberton for the gift of shirts as well as other kindnesses; Fiona Dinning for continued support to project Milk Bottle and all the fabulous people who run village halls across Suffolk and Essex, many of whom have gone out of their way to promote the show and make me feel welcome. Apologies if I've missed anyone out!
I'll finish archiving the shirt of Bad Deeds and the last of the Good Deeds next week.
Stisted Village Hall - the final venue.
The interior - lit by the demonic glow of overhead wall heaters
Me and my shadow at Boxted and Hartest
St Mary's Church Chilton... twas a little chilly.
Steeple Bumpstead - pity I didn't need the stage for this show...
