Another treat in the form of an interview with Jimmy Chisholm, who played Dissait in Ane Satyre of the Thrie Estaitis. Filmed during the interval of the final performance, you can get a sense of how the set design related to the Palace itself. From the perspective of being seated on the ground, it was almost as if the Palace grew out of the set.
Like Billy Riddoch, Jimmy makes suggestive links between the pantomime tradition and his approach to performing the role of the Vice, calling Flatterie, Falset and Dissait, “little panto creatures, they’re pixies”. His assessment of the moral scale of the play is also interesting. He says that while the Vices are impish, it is Divine Correction who is truly frightening.  My apologies for the terrible camera work at the start of the interview!
