Wish I could come! But if I'm going to make it to London, that's probably the only trip I'll manage this year.

Re: Shakespeare in Washington - 6 month festival!
*wonders how her cat managed to get out of the house to run a theatre company* 
The first time I saw Richard III was my first trip to London - I'm sorry to say I fell asleep!  (I blame jet lag.)
The first time I saw The Tempest performed was an all-male production at The Globe during my second trip (semester) to London. 
Enjoy! And believe it or not, I'm a bit jealous. I can't remember the last time I was at the theatre.

 thanks, ButMad! after the photos of California, I have been moping that maybe I should be living on the Left Coast, where all the fun is!
Thanks for reminding me that we DO have some good things here on the Atlantic Seaboard!
oh, yeah, and get thee to a theater, woman!!!

Shakespeare in Washington, part TWO:
Richard III
Click for Photos
Oh, my! How V is he? more Naked Villainy, less noble heart, but a masterful conniving manipulator of other people's greed, lust and doubt.
In some of the essays about the play in the program, it was pointed out that there is plenty of back story to the victims of R3 to justify their demise, excepting the young Princes, of course. And that the R3 we know comes to us via Tudor propaganda, and therefore is probably largely distorted. Apparently there is a Richard III society dedicated to un-besmirching his memory! (kind of like us, heh heh  Viva V! )
It was truly amazing theater, I loved it, the ending battle scenes were incredible -- made me want to study Fight Choreography with them. (they have classes...Wouldn't this be fun?!
)
more later... should be working!
