Just drawn breath from Wednesday and here we are, back on the rails, this time heading for our performance in Portsmouth. We undertook early on to make this tour as environmentally sustainable as we could – public transport wherever possible, pulling set, costume and props behind us in wheeled cases. Two thirds of the set travel in a pair of large tubes as something we fondly call The Gun Carriage, with the remainder slung from whoever’s shoulder is free at the time. London Underground staff tend to think we’re on a fishing trip…                                   Harps are a different matter though, and it’s understood that Steph and Harriet will need to drive to venues. We try to minimise their driving by juggling geography and bookings as best we can.
