Summary

This quote reminds us that life can sometimes feel chaotic and overwhelming, similar to a shipwreck. However, even in the face of adversity, it is crucial to maintain optimism and find joy in the little things. Just like the lifeboats provide safety and refuge during a shipwreck, finding moments of happiness and singing metaphorically represents resilience and the ability to persevere, even in challenging times. It serves as a reminder to embrace positivity and make the most of every situation.

When we'd suggested doing it, the Theatre Royal management had said, 'Nobody wants to see Waiting for Godot.'
