The Arts Festival starts tomorrow and the town is getting ready. Shops are dressing up with snowflakes (it is still winter even though the days are getting longer) and the Spiegeltent is going up!
I am carrying on with my quest to do everything in my first 12 months so I have tickets to at least half a dozen things - theatre, comedy, music, dance, caberet. I'm going to 3 things in the Spiegeltent simply because it is so wonderful. It doesn't look flash in the photo but it is a tent with stained glass windows and fabulous wooden panelling and booths that travels the world as a festival venue. I know this because I went to something in it at the Melbourne festival a few years ago. Ours is going up in a carpark, a few unhappy campers but most people are really looking forward to getting inside.
Arte Kanela the Flamenco dancers at Womad are back and I'm off to see Slava & Leonard Gregorian and Paul Capsis, both Australian acts that I never managed to see there. No fancy wrist band this time but hopefully just as much fun!
