Pune Highway in Bonn

I went to Bonn on Sunday and saw Pune Highway! It was great. You've probably all seen it, but it was a first for me and really good to see a play that came out of an earlier workshop. And also so nice to see Shernaz, Rajit and Rahul. The play was really well received despite all the Germans having to listen to simultaneous translation through earphones. Lots and lots of applause, and then a Q&A session afterwards. There was a good review in the paper next day -- at least it was said to be a good one, though as it was in German none of us understood it (apart from 'Tarantinoesque). I went out with them all next day to Cologne, where we went to the cathedral -- impressive -- and had lunch at an outside cafe by the river. The 3 of them, and Farhad, are going to be in London at the end of next week where I will see them again, and hopefully get them in to see a one-man show at the Court called Product, written and performed by Mark Ravenhill (he of Shopping and Fucking).
Hope you had a great birthday Maia!!!!
love
Harriet
