The afternoon sessions starts at 1.30pm and finishes at 5pm. So after a night of very little sleep and waking up in agony due to the lack of pain killers me and my mother arrived at 9.15am. "Hi, I need to see a dentist please," I said to the very smiley receptionist. "Do you have an appointment?" she asked. "No, I didn't realise I needed one, I thought I could just walk in."

The Blue Wind A one act radio playBy Sandra Bunting Intro: "..song is existence. Easy for the god. But when do we exist? And when does he spend the earth and the stars on our being? When we love? That's what you think when you are young; not so, though your voice forces open your mouth, -learn to forget how you sang. That fades. Real singing is a different kind of breath. A nothing breath. A ripple in the god. A wind."-Rilke on the creative process in Sonnet to Orpheus 'There is nothing to which we can attach ourselves, no matter how hard we try. In time, things will change and the conditions that produced our current desireswill be gone. Why then cling to them now?'-Master Hsing Yun The play alternates between two setting: the New York apartment to represent, human existence, and... Similar posts
