Spectacular Streetshows

Ripon Theatre Festival this last weekend: and Saturday and Sunday brought street performances and spectacles all over town. Best of all was that despite the incessant rain and intermittent thunder we were threatened with, not a drop fell while we were all out and about enjoying ourselves (and performing too, in the case of choirs like mine). But. What a cheek! Hardly anyone was decked out in red! I’m relying on photos from previous years to plug the Red Gap.

  7. That emu was amazing. How long did that person have to stay doubled up like that? You were lucky with the rain holding off

  15. What a lively glimpse into the Ripon Theatre Festival, Margaret! I’m glad the skies held off and allowed everyone to enjoy the festivities—and how wonderful that your choir took part! Thank you for bringing these local moments to life so beautifully.
