The story so far:
On Pip's sixteenth birthday, Miss Havisham signs the papers apprenticing him to Joe and tells him not to come any more. Pip is wretched and longs to see Estella; he goes one day to Satis House and learns she is at school abroad. That same day, Mrs. Joe and Orlick quarrel violently; later, Joe finds her lying unconscious in the forge - she has been struck on the head. Biddy, Pip's former teacher, comes to nurse Mrs. Joe, who has lost the power to speak; Biddy, however, is convinced that she was struck down by Orlick.

In 1950 Geoffrey Bull, Christian Missionary to China and Tibet was arrested as a suspected spy by Chinese Communist Forces as they advanced into Tibet. The three years of captivity which followed resolved themselves into a struggle between a solitary Christian's faith and the attempts of an atheistic regime to brainwash him. How he fared in this struggle, and how he eventually emerged into freedom is the story which, in this programme, Geoffrey Bull tells in person.
Arranged and introduced by William Purcell.

The ballet tells the story of The Lady, a fascinating woman, who must choose between her three suitors, a wealthy man, a handsome man, and a Royal Prince: but she does not love them and rejects all the worldly things they can offer her for the simple love of a vagabond clown. The drama takes place during a ball in an Italian palace towards the middle of the last century.
'The Lady and the Fool', which was created for the Royal Ballet and first performed in 1954, is in the current repertory of the Royal Ballet at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.
