The Atmosphere Changes

Our little show was supposed to open on a Friday. The Wednesday before we finished rehearsal early, about 5:30. Inside the gaol it was always coolish even with lights on. We stepped out into a furnace. The sun had disappeared, visibilty was very limited. Everything smelt of burning. Nothing had got into the gaol, so it was a shock. 

It was Ash Wednesday 1983
