On our way to Jermyn Street Theatre’s production of Howard Brenton’s highly-recommended Byron/Shelley bio-drama Bloody Poetry on Sunday 18th February, we ran into a loud bunch of drum-banging, hoola-hooping, life-affirming activists who had taken over residence of the Anteros statue at Piccadilly Circus. I initially assumed it was an offshoot of the Occupy London movement, but on closer inspection, they seemed to be protesting against the commercialism of Valentine’s Day. They were having an awful lot of fun, for people standing in the rain on a miserable afternoon in London.
