Spamming you because I can....

There's more new pics from Hamlet out - I'm sure you've all seen most of them, but here's a variation on one that I haven't seen pop up on my friends pages yet:




Note that you can see Patrick Stewart's lovely face in this one.

There's also a nice interview in today's Guardian with Gregory Doran, the director of Hamlet. Linkie here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2008/aug/03/theatre.rsc

Yeah...and how often does one get to see LLL as opposed to Hamlet? :)

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

Don't forget the possibility of tights.

[garpu.livejournal.com]

Mmm...tights. Probably dance belt, or somesuch device, though. :/

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

True, but still.

[principia-coh.livejournal.com]

Well, it is going to be a period production, ostensibly, so I guess we'll know in a couple of months for sure.

*hopes desperately for this, along with a DVD... or tickets*

[principia-coh.livejournal.com]

I know! I still can't get over how the main meetup (read: squeeing young girls) group is going to see Hamlet.

It's Hamlet. You no can has squee.

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

You CAN has squee, but you must keep your squee to yourself - ie the 'stealth squee', reserved for serius! produkshun.

[principia-coh.livejournal.com]

How much you wanna bet a healthy chunk of the girls going have no idea what the play is or how it ends? They're going to freak.

Stealth squee = drooling. Drooling over Hamlet is perfectly acceptable.

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

Probably not. I don't think they really care. I do, but unfortunately it doesn't translate into a ticket. This causes me much woe.

[principia-coh.livejournal.com]

I thought the issue was the travel, not the tickets.

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

The main issue is the work schedule. Already taking 2 weeks off in August, then three in October. I picked up coverage for Thanksgiving and New Years so that I could get Christmas off, so... *shrugs*

I *could* probably swing a Saturday show (ie leave on a Friday, fly back on a Saturday), but the sleep deprivation would be painful - plus, there's no way the hubby would go for that.

[mtemplar-fic.livejournal.com]

And that would be 'fly back on Sunday'. Sheesh.
