It isn’t until he falls deeply in love with the Colonel’s daughter that he realises he has stepped into the House of Dead…"

I bumped in to Eldarin at the Chinese Visual Festival as she was leaving some flyers for the play.  Hopefully I might be able to catch up with her for series 7 of Lucky Cat (coming to a radio/computer near you from Moon Festival time, details soon).
