<p>NTW 2012 provided a theatre first for me- the first time ever a member of the audience has come up to me and asked if she could drive home in sight of my back lights for reasons of safety. ("Food for Thought" in May).</p>
<p></p>
<p>I thought "Branches" was much under-valued critically. Deeside is just that bit too far from the epicentre. I'm not sure if "experiment" is the right adjective- I asked a couple of sisters, aged nine and eleven, what they thought- to them it was rock music,…</p>

<p>So rewarding to have our production TORCHBEARERS included as one of your favorites John. Particularly as we were so scandalously ignored by the critics - but not in South Africa. The young - and not so young people of the valleys and the townships deserved more. I know they will lap up your praise when I pass it on. Happy new year!</p>

<p>Many thanks Larry</p>

<p>Thrilling to read about John, only wish I could've seen some of it! My new year's resolution is to make it over to see at least one production in your new season... Look forward to the announcement.</p>
