    Re: Macbeth

    I'm delighted to hear that, Garrett. John has been more than generous with his time planning a kilt with me, and more than patient waiting while I accumulate the cash to go ahead. All of the photos of his work show meticulous and exacting craftsmanship, and having met the man, he is a gentle soul and very humble. Now, don't be embarassed John - it's true!

    I look forward to your photos almost as much as I look forward to finally placing my order.

    Military box pleats certainly do have a unique and striking effect, eh? I look forward to some pictures though it sounds like video would be required to really do this kilt justice...

    It's a pity about that MacBeth class and I hope you get to teach it eventually. When you do, will you wear the kilt and plaid together for a pseudo great kilt look?

    I'd not worry about the so-called curse of 'The Scottish Play', yet. However, should a lecture room catch fire (or be the only room in the building with enough heat to double as a sauna ) or have the ceiling tiles fall to the floor, then I'd start to worry.

    Although my father, who was a Shakespearean actor in the late 1970s, always says that the curse of "The Scottish Play" only applies in an actual theatre...at least that was the way he heard it...but he always had a Saint Genesius medal sewn on his costumes, just in case.
