One Line Lichen and Winter Trees








The sun peels away from the horizon, to illuminate green lichen on dark winter trees, a luminescence

One Line Richmond Park, dawn, frost and mist


In the hollows, where frost and mist is thickest, the dregs of night

Uncle Vanya at The Rose Theatre, Kingston

















We went to the new Rose Theatre in Kingston this evening to see Chekhov's Uncle Vanya - the first production in the new theatre.

It was the usual ingredients of declining Russian middle class, haunted by the meaninglessness of life, filled with unfulfilled longing.

Suffused with a hint of peasant, an alcoholic stupor and a rant about the decline of the Russian forest.

Laced with tragic foreboding and dark ironic humour.

All done very well. Peter Hall directed an impressive cast.
