Wow, been a bit lax in the old posting do-ding recently. Apologies, had a lot on and been way too tired to log in.
Went to the theatre to watch *groan groan* a Shakespeare production last week. Yep, surely it was destined to be a bore, despite the enigmatic Patrick Stewart taking the lead but 'The Tempest' courtesy of the RSC was absolutely brilliant from start to finish.
With cutting humour, brilliant special effects and clever twists to the dialogue, this play is up there in my personal hall of fame of best theatre productions I've seen.
Patrick didn't steal the show as I had presumed he would, in fact, a couple of the actors left him in their shadows in my opinion.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and, to quote a friend from the day: 'You know who I don't hate as much anymore? Shakespeare'
Just goes to show, life can be shot into any old dredge when you try!
