Where the hell did the weekend go? I know it was three days long and I spent it in the luxurious peace and quiet of my home-town, being fed to the brim by my mother as though I was a newborn child, but it still ended sooner than Chico's career after his last single. Still, not to worry, we may have been away putting ou
r feet up but some consciencious so-and-so's have been beavering away, filling inboxes with cheery life-enhancers for the weeks ahead. THANK GOD.
One thing that seems to be on everyone's lips is the Sultan's Elephant. Not literally of course, as that would be quite painful, but starting this weekend (4th - 7th of May) is the biggest piece of outdoor theatre ever to descend on London. And it sounds twisted. Apparently, this took three years to plan and over four days it will tell the story of a sultan from far, far away and his mystical, time-travelling, 40 foot high, 42 tonne elephant. WEIRD. You can dip into the story as and when you like... you can even follow the performers into a restaurant for lunch, watch them attend a party, and follow them round as they go sightseeing.
