Some time ago a book arrived in the post. The book was Carlos Castaneda’s “The Other Side of Infinity.” It was from somebody whom I’d only met once and so it took me a bit of time to solve the mystery of the book’s source. The opening of the book hit a chord with me.

I began the story of another journey that began in a puppet theatre world. A modern myth that re-imagined conditions in 1970’s Santiago in the show ‘El Tomate y El Condor’ and my story continued into a workshop space that is now an Italian kitchen.

Scheherazade saved her life by telling a story a night for 1001 nights. Whilst my tales are not subject to such an ominous outcome, I do share some of Scheherazade’s fate. My life has depended on stories.
