Verona Bass de Beyond teh Border Festival, Wales, 03 julio 2012
Dear Nicole and Martin,
The first show I saw was the Musicians of Bremen and I loved the clever use of few props, the humour, whe way you engaged gently and kindly with any audience participants. Of course, your skill at juggling and acrobatics was phenomenal.
To my sorrow I missed The Girl with no Hands Show. I managed to get into The Fisherman and his Wife [despite the long queue! ] I now can still not explain to myself why that show so affected me! (I spoke to you, Martin, briefly and told you in the bar, but could not speak as I wanted to cry). It was the essence of theatre that is embodied in what you offer, and in the gentle music as you invite us in, you explain that we are given this space to enjoy. As the story unfolded I was childlike in my reaction, and was completely taken by the drama, to the inevitable conclusion, which we all know,,,It was transformative. I thank you for this wonderful experience. I have just turned seventy, and this has been a Gift.
