September 25th 2014 has been chosen as the date for the unveiling of the Blue Plaque for Fabian Ware, founder of the Imperial War Graves Commission (now the Commonwealth War Graves Commission) and the central figure in my play MEMORIALS TO THE MISSING. Final details have yet to be settled but I'm delighted that my initial proposal for a Plaque has come to fruition. Fabian's grandaughter, Gillian, will be attending along with members of her family and representatives of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
Just spent the day in rehearsal with Kinny and the Krazy Kat team working on their new version of Midsummer Night's Dream. Wonderful to see the puppets coming to life in the actors' hands. Imaginative design as always from Chris de Wilde.It's going to be good.
Details of performances can be found on the March 21st post.
Update. 3rd May. The show is up and running and I've just seen it at the studio of Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford. It's terrific!
