Earth Hour began while the play was still running, so I dashed round and lit the candles we had hurriedly put out between shows. We stood at the doors into the foyer to help those audience members who might have difficulty in the dark. The foyer looked wonderful with the candles all grouped around. Most of the patrons had read our foyer publicity in which we mentioned that we were doing Earth Hour for the Fish Hoek Dramatic Society and were delighted when they walked out. Later eating out at a restaurant down the road in a small mall where all the lights were out and the soft glow of candles made reading the menu a challenge, we spent the rest of Earth Hour most pleasantly. When the lights came back up the patrons broke into spontaneous applause and congratulated the owner on his participation.
