Dear ,

I accept the offer.

Thanks,

Kris

Its official, I'm staying in Exeter to do my PhD! Very scary!

Sad news today, Augusto Boal died. I first heard about Boal when I was working on When I'm Alone I'm Alone with C&T2 back in 2004 (However, I thought his name was pronounced bowl) where a quote of his was included in my part:

"In its most archaic sense, theatre is the capacity possessed by human beings - and not by animals - to observe themselves in the act of seeing, of thinking their emotions, of being moved by their thoughts, they can see themselves here and imagine themselves there, they can see themselves today and imagine themselves tomorrow"

Brilliant.

Am well on the way to finally documenting everything dramery I've done over the last ten years (http://www.krisdarby.exofire.net). Hopefully it'll work. 

On May 1st we had a Wicker Man night at Carey and Jareds which was fantastic. Carey introduced me to this great pen and paper game which was hysterical then we introduced Kim, Claudia, Jude and Ila to The Wicker Man. I hadn't seen it since uni and forgot how funny it was.

Also randomly bumped into Jon my old housemate at Aberystwyth in town the other day. Pretty weird. Small world though.
