Yeah, I agree. I remember seeing a fantastic production of some Heathcote Williams stuff in the early/mid 90s. There seemed to be some room for theatre, not just circus and cabaret/comedy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ommadawn Posted April 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) It was worse when he had his Nissan Leaf. You couldn't even hear that coming. With the Landrover, at least you have a chance to throw yourself in the hedge before he drives past.

Zoo Music Girl Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 This sounds great. Been trying to get the bloke into Shakespeare since we got together, to no avail. Maybe if I buy him a drink and drag him along at Glastonbury I can finally achieve it! Do you think it will be a local or touring theatre group? Also what kind of time do you think they would put stuff on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 HawkWinter' Tale? No... fair enough. Sorry. Anyway this is cool. Love Shakey.. just hope he doesn't insist on only doing his new stuff... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalon_Fields Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 I’m well up for it, can’t see myself sitting through at entire play at Glastonbury but it’s high up on my list of new festival experiences Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
