slings and arrows
I went to see Hamlet in Stratford on Saturday with my mum and some friends. We booked the tickets a year ago which is a long time to wait but I wasn't disappointed! The worst thing about the whole evening was getting soaked on the way to the theatre and being on the balcony (great seats but blimey, I'm not good with heights and things started to swim in front of my eyes when I first sat down!). The best thing was everything else! Patrick Stewart was great, David Tennant was great and so were the rest of the cast. It was all very impressive. I've never seen Shakespeare at the theatre and it was better than I ever imagined it would be. Funny and sad and thoughtful and full of life.
On a more shallow note, looking down from a height meant that I spotted David Tennants pants on more than one occasion (they were red!) and even glimpsed some of the midriff. Awesome indeed! ;) Also, I was in the same room as Captain Picard!
When we got back from the theatre, we watched Merlin. I'm not sure I could love this show any more than I do right now. I haven't felt this rabidly fannish about something for a long time (I may start foaming at the mouth soon). I want to be all flaily hands and bandom arms about it all the time. \o/ \o/ Certain people on my f-list seem to be filthy enablers - linking to YouTube vids of Colin Morgan holding an edible penis and showing me fabulous newspaper clippings (CAMPALOT and the court of Queen Arthur! indeed).
