Birthday treat

Today is my birthday and we are in Bristol where it is raining!

We have been to Zasu's for a birthday Brunch (Grace works there 1 night a week).

Then we had to take her down to the Hippodrome Theatre in the centre of Bristol for the last dress rehearsal which is their first actually on the theatre stage as 'Phantom of The Opera' has just finished a run there at the weekend.
She needed a lift as she has about 20 costumes.

Here she is struggling in the stage door.

Thank you for the Memories. is the show they are putting on to celebrate 100 years of the theatre. You can see the details on the poster outside the theatre in the link above.

She has a solo - singing Eponine's 'I dreamed a dream' from Les Mis (oops that's Fantine)- and is singing something from the era of the suffragettes as well as dancing in most of the musical numbers, including a Tiller girl line up for a medley of wartime numbers.

I'm really looking forward to it.

Just relaxing now watching the Tour de France - it's sunny there!
