For the second year running I have managed to get up to Brecon for the community ballet. It is a mixed professional, semi professional and community venture and it is both wonderful professionally and also has so much heart it is irresistible. This year I got a double dose as I went to the dress, which went well, only once or twice did the director hurtle to the front to ask the live orchestra to speed up, and the Saturday evening performance. As a result I also got to compare the leads which was really interesting. After the event, we went to the Patrons get together with the performers, as my brother, who also appeared in the production, is a Patron. I felt too shy to speaker to many of the performers, but the Director came round obligingly and the one dancer I spoke to said it was worth coming over from Portugal because of the community element of the production. He said he really loves the party scene as it comes alive.
