’Tis the season to be jolly! And to see theatre, because what could be more jolly? By the time this comes out, the performances mentioned will have been laid to rest, but I hope reading about them will spur you to make sure you get to see the shows next time around, and I’m sure you won’t have to wait a whole year.

Protagonists in a state of travel has been a popular and recurring theme in the history of literature. In many of the classic novels in this genre, it is not the A-to-B journey nor resolution of the quest that is of main interest. But rather the opportunity it affords the author to study central characters in depth, exploring insights, and often iconoclastic observations within the floating world.

It was on a stroll along Phang Nga Road in Phuket town on a particularly sun-blinding day that I realised just how surreal life is. Not more than a few months previous I was hauling my butt along Oxford Street, London through the pouring rain in a failed attempt to get to a tedious media launch on time. In the blink of an eye I’m living in S.E. Asia as a Lifestyle Editor. But I should have braced myself, it was about to get a whole lot weirder.

I know a bit about silk. Literally. A bit. As in not much. Wandering around Asia, I’ve picked up a veneer of expertise. At my age, it’s more like a patina. OK, make that a crust.

Pablo Picasso once stated that sex and art are the same thing. As a prolific man across both forms, I guess he should know. One can only assume what he was intimating at was ‘the connection’. An uncompromising passion and engagement with the subject matter.
