Lynne Parker

So you are very welcome to our community of scholars, and we look forward to, uh, learning as much from you and, uh, sharing all of these ideas.

And the visionary behind Rough Magic is, of course, the artistic director, uh, Lynne Parker, uh, who has, again, been a wonderful friend for us here in the Hub.

And, uh, when we had the idea of doing something around this fellowship, I thought, "Why not make it part of our festival?" Because our festival is one of our highlights of the year.

It's when we share what we do with the wider world, with, with our wider community in Trinity.

And because this relationship is so important for us here, uh, I wanted it to be in our program as something that we share, uh, with our colleagues and our friends, uh, because it is part of our mission and our vision going forward.

And so it gives me great, great pleasure to be able to, uh, call on, uh, the wonderful Lynne Parker.

Thank you so much, Patrick.

[laughs] Um, yes, as you say, the relationship between Rough Magic and the Hub and Trinity goes back some time.
