There was an air of giddiness on board the bus for Alter by Kamchàtka

★★★★☆

Coach tours were a welcome relief from the classroom for most Irish people in their schooldays. So there was inevitably an air of giddiness on board the bus arranged for those attending the Barcelona-based theatre company Kamchàtka‘s outdoor performance of Alter at Cork Midsummer Festival. The excitement was heightened by the lateness of the hour; we departed from Lapps Quay at 10pm.
