SHE ARRIVED by road, in pieces, on two low-loaders. She was welded together on a dock at Devonport naval base-the only nearby place that could accommodate her bulk. Then she was lifted onto a barge and pulled across Plymouth Sound. On March 22nd she was to be unveiled at her permanent home, in front of the Theatre Royal. She is a statue of an actress in a hooded top, rehearsing a part in "Othello". At seven metres high, she is among the largest bronze sculptures in Britain.
