The Cultural Stuff

Dr Anne always does a show and an exhibition when she goes to London.  It was last minute choices this year but great.

The show was Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.  It was at the Playhouse near the Embankment.  


The cast put on a terrific show.  Being a small theatre one felt totally part of the production. The show attracted many groups of women to the show.  How many get to the edge?  Set in Madrid in 1987 the story line was about the effects of love rat Ivan.  The moral was that a new day brings new expectations, new happenings.  What happened yesterday can't be undone.

The funniest part was the gazpacho soup with Valium.  What a good idea?


Friday took Dr Anne to the Tate Modern to the Sonia Delaunay exhibition.  It was superb.  Dr Anne loved her use of colour to give the impression of 3 D.  Her textile design was amazing.  Her later work showed great skill, wonderful eye and superb knowledge of the cultural influences around her.
