The Flick

A day of training at the Barbican. I had a good sized crowd of delegates - 18 in total - and the course seemed to go smoothly. There's always more material to cover than there is time. Ain't that the truth.

When it finished I cycled back to my mum's to drop off my bag and then speed walked through the crowded, sticky streets to the National. I arrived 9 minutes before The Flick was due to start, sweaty and hungry.

It was a great play. Funny and sad by turns, with an unhurried pace that echoed the lives of the cinema staff protagonists.
