Dario Fo has died earlier on today, coincidentally the day of the Nobel Prize Announcement, in a hospital in Milan. He was 90 years old.
Known for his satirical farces his love for the jester imbued his writing.
I watched 'Accidental Death of an Anarchist' in the Aberstwyth Art Centre Theatre and very much enjoyed his fast-paced wit and knockabout jokes, including the joke about Noah and the fish, of which I have forgotten the punchline.
He leaves a legacy of 80 plays.
