Grims Fairy Cabaret
If you're going to Boskone
(Feb. 17-10), don't miss the Friday night Cabaret of songs written
by John M. Ford, performed by various writers & fans - runs
the gamut from "You’re so fair /You prob’ly think your mirror
can hear you" to the poignant "Are we elfin?"
(Titania:)
For ten thousand years we’ve blessed their kids
Soured their milk, watched their fires
Tripped up lovers in the woods half-dressed
After ten thousand years, has your sense just gone West?
I am hoping to put across a convincing version of Miss - ur, Princess Adelaide's "In other words,
Just from waiting for someone to finish his questing slog/
A princess might just fancy a frog...."
