Ah, lovely Bucharest. Looking very fine this evening for the first night of the Bucharest Opera Festival. Gounod's Faust to come, done by the Bucharest Opera itself.

The Tempest at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Design: amazing. Sound and music: gruesome. Sigourney Weaver: a duke, a duchess, a master? No one seems to be sure.

The Tower Tavern: a classic of the genre. Complete with orange vinyl banquettes. Many happy memories. Still not as FRP-y as The Windmill just off Tottenham Ct Rd.
