No time to report in detail at present, but this week, on consecutive nights, I have been to the theatre (STC's production of Stoppard's Rock ’n’ Roll) and the ballet (The Australian Ballet's Jerome Robbins Celebration). And there will be no concerts. In fact, I haven't been to a concert for a whole seven days, and it will have been a fortnight when I next step foot in a concert hall. Far from feeling deprived, I'm actually feeling quite refreshed. I find it next to impossible not to "work" at a concert, and I have been reminded this week just how much I adore my first loves: dance and theatre. Now all I need to do is find a good musical (anyone recommending Billy Elliot?) and my rejuvenation will be complete.
