In my original review I commented on the fact that there were no doubt cultural references that went over our anglicised heads. What was interesting was hearing Turner and the cast talk about how they learnt through Rozo (he was involved throughout the rehearsal period) that homosexuality in Colombia is seen as the result of something that happens to you early in your life, most likely a trauma. They certainly don't believe you are born gay.

It certainly explains some of the deeply homophobic language used throughout and crucially the way they talk about Carlos sexuality as if it were a condition.

The cast through Rozo also discovered an emerging reliance on psychiatry to 'cure' in Colombia. You talk about it to the psychiatrist and he makes it all better; it is replacing the Roman Catholic confessional. It certainly explains the continual stream of characters on the psychiatrist's couch and how he ultimately benefits.

Turner took 'hundreds' of pictures on her trip which influenced the set right down to the colour scheme although she admits that certain things have been anglicised. What I wanted to ask was why Clare Cathcart's character Tania uses her native Northern Irish accent while Colin Morgan and Eugene O'Hare both hide theirs under English accents. It's the first time I've raised my hand at a Q&A but I didn't get chosen so I still don't know the answer.

And so what of Mr Morgan? Well he wasn't there on the panel - the only cast who made it were Adrian Schiller, Joshua Williams and Ishia Bennison. No doubt he decided to take advantage of the fact that most of the audience were staying for the Q&A and slip out of the theatre untroubled by autograph hunters and Merlin fans. I can understand that but I am still a little disappointed as I'd have liked to have asked him what it was that attracted to the role of bipolar compulsive fantasist...

The reviews start to arrive after I wrote mine and on UpTheWestEnd.com the play has an average score of 3.4/5.
