Welcome to this first performance of a play written during the “lockdown” months of 2020. I should say at the outset that, although the play draws on my experience of conducting and singing in many cathedrals in England and Wales, and in other musical churches, there is no intended resemblance to any of the many interesting, and in most cases charming and delightful people I have come across in the last half century. Cathedrals, like croquet, bring out the rivalry and camaraderie of small communities where time seems to be preserved, in both the wonderful clocks and treasured artefacts and perhaps in some of the residents of the cathedral close.
