MF opens - puppets good, some rain

Opening night in Bregenz - the town is overrun with people in fancy frocks and straw sun hats. Blind Summit come to visit. The show goes well.The lipsynching of the puppets to the singing is beguiling and makes me wish they were in the show more. A round of applause for Pamina and Tamino disappearing into the lake holding the flute over their head. Very grand after show party, skinny dipping in the lake at dawn, then bed for a couple of hours before setting off to Zurich and back to London.


Things I heard this week: Acting is problem solving. In acting discomfort is the comfort. If you don't trust your director you might as well not work with a director (Robert DeNiro). Everything is political (Me).
