Five Minute Theatre

1. This is the most extraordinary, exciting and unusual day I have ever spent.

2. This photo is taken around 6am I reckon. Margaret-Anne and I are are doing star jumps. Not long before this, one of the most beautiful things I have seen popped onto our screens. A pop up choir standing at the top of hill in a park in the heart of the city singing as the sun came up. I am moved beyond words. I am starting to realise what is happening right now. It's momentous.

3. The day goes on. The room fills up again, the pace changes. Going by in a blur and yet feeling every moment, respecting every turn, excited by the things I've been talking about and writing about and planning for months happening now, right before my eyes. Something has built over the hours and gathered momentum. People are getting involved. People are talking to us all the time. People are falling in love with this. See.

4. Our last five minutes is all of us. We talk to the camera that is our window on the world. We thank the performers who have made this happen. We ask them to stand up, wherever they are and take a bow. And then we start the applause.

5. And we keep clapping, we cheer and we jump. We celebrate.
