Long rehearsal yesterday – 14 straight hours with Zoe. Not sick of each other yet. Having a lovely Sunday off, reading the bad Sunday paper, drinking bad coffee, watching bad TV. Have been thinking about the three-year gap that would have meant not being able to produce Under Milk Wood, thanks to the Free Trade Agreement in 2005. Had it been signed in 2002, we wouldn’t have been able to experiment with Dylan Thomas’ writing until 2023 without raising considerably more funds for royalties payable to an estate.
