The first copies of my catalogue arrived at The Stage Door of The Old Vic at 2:30 p.m. this afternoon. The intention is for everyone attending during the 15 days to have a free copy of the catalogue.

The installation itself is quite amazing. It is a unique blend of art, performance and space. The atmosphere is magical and will be difficult to reproduce in any other venue. It is one of those rare occurrences that creep up unannounced following a confluence of disparate actions, unco-ordinated but reinforcing, that change the lives of many of those involved.
