Edmund - Son of Gloucester - Rehearsal of Act 3 - Scene 2

A little pressie for you all before we publish on Friday. 

This is a filmed rehearsal on Act 3 Scene 2 of Edmund - Son of Gloucester. It was created in late 1995/early 1996 for the Waterside Theatre in Stratford Upon Avon so they could check we had the chops to perform in their lovely in-the-round space.  In this scene Robert Addie plays Soldier, Aidan Herd plays Spit and Adrian Ross Jones plays Edmund. It is a comic scene in which Spit tells the Soldier of Edmund's acts of derring-do.  


God, I miss Robert and Aidan. 

Here's to the friends and family we have lost along the way.
