all the world's a play ...

owlbeerI went to see The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) tonight, which consisted of three actors trying to squash all of Shakespeare's works into about three hours in a very, very hilarious way. It was fantastic and well, well worth the price of admission. Oliver Driver, Jeremy Elwood and Keith Some-Last-Name-I've-Forgotten did a wonderful job and the whole audience seemed to have a blast. So worth it. I'm so glad I finally decided to go on Tuesday and ramdomly texted some friends asking if they wanted to go too as, with two days notice, someone said yes! I would have gone alone, but it was a lot of fun with someone else there. Especially as said friend went up to the actors and asked for their autographs and I got to tell them personally how great I thought it was. They all seemd like nice guys.
However, while walking home on a high I started to fixate on one small thing I did when I was there, which I perhaps really shouldn't have. I'll probably see the person involved tomorrow and I'll talk to her about it. Gah. Stupid, stupid brain. I'm no doubt blowing this completely out of proportion.

Doctor Who starts here next Thursday at 7:30 on Prime! I must remember to tape it as I'll be in Queenstown when it's on. I'm going down with three friends to visit another friend for five days and to partake in the Winter Festival celebrations. Hopefully it will be a lot of fun.

Thanks to the wonderful DVD Unlimited (just a little addicted) I've now seen Before Sunrise I mean, I definitely enjoyed it and I may have finally forgiven Ethan Hawke for 'Great Expectations' but it didn't really leave me feeling anything. It was odd. There were some lovely touches though (the montage at the end where if flashes to all the places they've been was wonderful).![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
polymnia suggested I watch it together with Before Sunset, so maybe I'll feel differently after watching that.
I also rented the first disc of S1 of Babylon 5. Was it always that ... bad? Was it just the first season? Was it just the start of the first season? Is my brain glorifying it a little? Barring G'Kar and Londo (who are always wonderful), I really struggled to get much enthusiasm up for it at all. I'm still going to persevere with the rest of the season, it just wasn't quite what I expected/remembered.

My drivers liscene photo is actually kind of decent. I'm shocked.
