We're back

...[livejournal.com profile] alibongo an' me, back from Stratford where a very good time was had indeed.

Ringside seats, practically sitting on the stage we were!

The Calvin Klein undies were most pleasing, tho a little tempting when wee Davey was sitting with his arse in our faces. Oooh, the heady desire to ping!

David Tennant has a lovely tummy
but, omg, what a pale, skinny, hairy wee man! *g*

Patrick Stewart is, of course, a fabulous actor with a fine skill for covering other actor's forgotten lines but  disappointingly short for one of our party. *g*

CUNT! ry... How nice to see one icon quoting another. Quite brought a tear to my ear.

Brilliant Hamlet is always brilliant.

Lovely LLL is lovely but the sucky ending hath been sucking, yea an' verily, since 1598.

As I say, we were very close to the stage. if there are any cloneists on my flist, I have a sample of David's DNA on my hat in the form of spit. Speak now before I have it on ebay... (Oh and [livejournal.com profile] alibongo has some of his stage blood too. Other body fluids - you'll have to make your own arrangements.)

We ran into a wonderful guy name of Garrick Huscared on our last day's wanderings. An RSC actor (he was Richard III last year) his artist's colony was not doing well, alas (though his paintings were quite brilliant) and the move into fossils had done little to improve business. He told us some rather delicious actory tales, including some sweet ones about DT. He gave us gifts of very nice fossils with a parting kiss. He was a veritable sweetheart.Go post on his blog, he'll like that.


Indeed we did

It was a welcome stress free break for us both. Sorry it was just a 2-woman gig this time but those tickets were rare as the egg of Mantumbi. You could've knocked me down with an orange peel when I managed to score them.

I glad you got to go, I'm sure if you had managed to get a third ticket you would have thought of me, but I get plenty of good things in my life, so although I would have loved to have gone you two deserved it more.
