I’d never seen the word “sitooterie” before but I realised what it meant when I heard it said aloud.

I’d never seen the word “sitooterie” before but I realised what it meant when I heard it said aloud.
It’s an essential part of any garden isn’t it.
Somewhere to sit and have a chat with a friend or just somewhere to sit and let the world go by.
The beauty of being in a company of older performers is the kaleidoscopic range of real-life experiences that they bring to the table. These experiences cover everything from the vivid and strange world of childhood, to the unexpected late awakenings of old age. Take our newest batch of anecdotes, for example. These new stories are delightfully diverse: from the earthly, sensual joy of baking bread, to the cosmic dreams of outer space; from an unnerving encounter with a poltergeist, to the risqué glories of adult pleasure products and burlesque. Running as a rich theme throughout, is the possibility of love, and the simple wonder of human connection. As one writer tells us, in her story of funeral rites and flirting, “Amidst death, life goes on”, and indeed it does, delightfully so.
