The Musical version of Ghost, London Theatre Breaks
http://ghostlondon.com/31/the-musical-version-of-ghost-london-theatre-breaks/
The stage musical version of Ghost, is scheduled to open at London’s Piccadilly Theatre on June 22 and is booking initially until January 28 so that holiday period theatre breaks to see Ghost can be booked well in advance. This is going to be a very popular show for all sorts of theatre goers including hen party theatre breaks, romantic theatre breaks and anniversaries. Directed by multi-award-winning Matthew Warchus, Ghost will feature music by Dave Stewart (of Eurythmics fame) and Glen Ballard, writer of Michael Jackson’s hit Man in the Mirror. The production will be designed by Rob Howell, and will feature extraordinary, magical stage effects by Paul Kieve, illusionist for the hit film Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Bruce Joel Rubin has adapted his Oscar-winning screenplay for the stage show which will also feature the unforgettable Righteous Brothers song, Unchained Melody, which featured in the film’s iconic love scene at a potter’s wheel. A story about the power of love, Ghost revolves around a man called Sam, trapped as a ghost between this world and the next. He tries to communicate with girlfriend Molly through a phoney psychic, Oda Mae Brown, in the hope of saving her from his murderer. Richard Fleeshman, recently seen on the London stage playing Warner Huntington III opposite Sheridan Smith in Legally Blonde The Musical, will play Sam in the stage musical. Fleeshman is best known on television for his roles in Coronation Street, in which he played Craig Harris for four years and, more recently, Debbie Horsfield’s All the Small Things for the BBC. Caissie Levy will play Molly. She has most recently been seen on stage on Broadway and in the West End in the leading role of Sheila in the New York Public Theatre Cameron Mackintosh production of Hair. Levy made her Broadway debut as Penny Pingleton in Hairspray, a role she recreated on tour in the US. She went on to play Maureen Johnson in the US tour of Rent and in 2008 starred as the green witch Elphaba in the Los Angeles production of Wicked. Sharon D Clarke, who will play Oda Mae Brown, has most recently been seen on stage in the West End as Motormouth Maybelle in Hairspray at the Shaftesbury Theatre. She has played Mama Morton in Chicago at London’s Adelphi and Killer Queen in We Will Rock You at the Dominion. Ghost, the highest grossing film in the UK in 1990, was directed by Jerry Zucker.

Country diary: Bere Alston, Tamar Valley
http://distributedresearch.net/blog/2011/02/23/tamar-valley-southe-devoncottages
Looking for South Devon cottages in the Tamar Valley area.
This article titled “Country diary: Bere Alston, Tamar Valley” was written by Virginia Spiers, for The Guardian on Wednesday 23rd February 2011 00.44 UTC The tidal Tamar flows in a tight meander near Hooe beneath the steep woods and coverts of Pentillie and around the expansive mud bank off Clifton. From the narrow peninsula within this river loop are short views across to more familiar territory on the Cornish side – to Halton Quay with its lime kilns covered in ivy and the chapel which was once an office and store for the Co-op’s coal depot. Mount Ararat and the mausoleum built for Jimmy Tillie, who died in 1713, loom above Hornifast Marsh opposite and dominate the overgrown pittosporums and abandoned market gardens of Brentswood. The bewigged statue of that landowner, sitting in his Jacobean-style chair, gazes uninterrupted across this remote part of the valley. Ewes which have been recently turned out of the sheds with their lambs, numbered in red and blue like their mothers, baa and bleat in well-drained pastures, while the call of curlew marks the riverside habitat. Mud banks gleam like silver beneath the brightening sky as the tide creeps towards saltings of purslane broken by a slipway and cut to the main channel. Seaweed and reed stems litter the slaty shore. Low ground, protected from high tides by an embankment, is rushy, waterlogged and puddled with rainwater and runoff. Spar or quartz stones incorporated into the stoned-up banks of the drier fields hint of the mineral lodes beneath this ridge that extend deep beneath the river. When these were worked in medieval times and later, in the 19th century, the winding river would have been thronged with boats carrying ores, smelted silver and lead, and all the necessary supplies for mines and miners. Now, just a few geese glide by on the flooding tide past orange mooring buoys, vacant until summer.
guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 Published via the Guardian News Feed plugin for WordPress.
All in all sounds like a perfect location to explore on foot or by car and of course using the river Tamar itself. The next step is to see if there are any cheap South Devon cottages for rent with broadband wifi.

Sam's Globe
http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterdenton/3868078886/in/pool-473288@N25
Peter Denton has added a photo to the pool:
Sam Wanamaker, the American actor, producer and director, was responsible more than anyone else for today’s Shakespeare Globe Theatre on London’s South Bank.
In 1970 he launched the Shakespeare Globe Trust, with the sole intention of creating a replica of the original 16th century open-air theatre. He worked tirelessly on his project, overcoming great swathes of scepticism and all kinds of other obstacles – but in the end he not only raised more than £5 million but he also acquired a prime development site overlooking the Thames.
Unfortunately, Wanamaker never lived to see his dream come true: he died of prostate cancer in 1993, just four years before work was finished and the theatre was opened by the Queen. But Shakespeare's Globe still flourishes today – and were it not for the tenacity of this distinguished American, Britain and the world would be without this utterly exquisite and unique theatre.

The Master
http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterdenton/3491504160/in/pool-473288@N25
Peter Denton has added a photo to the pool:
This bust of Sir Noël Coward, the playwright, composer, director, actor and singer, was sculpted by Avril Vellacott and greets everyone who visits Teddington Library in Waldegrave Road. Which is quite fitting really, because not far along the road, at number 131, is the house where 'The Master' was born on 16 December 1899. In an accomplished life, Coward wrote more than 50 plays - some of his best-known being Blithe Spirit, Hay Fever, Private Lives and The Vortex. Among his musical compositions were London Pride, Mad Dogs and Englishmen, Mad About the Boy and, of course, Don't Put Your Daughter on the Stage. Mrs Worthington. As an actor, he appeared in a variety of films such as Our Man in Havana, Around the World in Eighty Days and The Italian Job.

I couldn't resist this view of Richmond's lovely theatre and its reflection in the top of a parked car. Richmond Theatre is a Victorian Theatre situated close to the beautiful Green at Richmond. According to Wikipedia: 'it opened on 18 September 1899 with a performance of As You Like It, and is one of the finest surviving examples of the work of theatre architect Frank Matcham.'
