A Conversation with Carlotta de Galleon.
Carlotta: Carlotta is back! I’m back!
Charlotte: I know, I’m excited.
Carlotta: Are you?
Charlotte: Yes!
Carlotta: …
Charlotte: Ok. And nervous. I’m terrified – it’ll be my first time on stage proper post-plague. But I also cannot wait. To be in a room with people. Make them laugh. Hopefully.
Carlotta: And you get to be with me.
Charlotte: I do, yep. I mean, it is a bit weird - re-embodying someone I was a few years ago. I feel like I’ve lived a thousand lives since then,
Carlotta: Yeah, it shows in your face.
Charlotte: Thanks.
Carlotta: You’ll have to do your make up well.
Charlotte: Will do.
Carlotta: You’ve got a bit cuddly too.
Charlotte: I know. That’s Covid. Let’s not talk about it.
Carlotta: It’s a pity. We used to be so hot.
Charlotte: I know! I watched a video of the show from years ago and I couldn’t really concentrate – I kept getting distracted by how hot we were. I did not take enough advantage.
Carlotta: I did.
Charlotte: Of course, you did.
Carlotta: This has got off topic, are you going to tell them about where they can see me?!
Charlotte: Oh yes, of course! Carlotta de Galleon ~ A Fool for Love! is on at the Chelsea Theatre on Thursday 26th August 2021 7.30pm as part of the Kensington and Chelsea Arts Festival.
Carlotta: Come and fall in love with me!
Charlotte: And get a free Mills and Boon!
Carlotta: Ciao!
Charlotte : See you there x
