Our Private Life
Spoilery, so behind a cut:
Well, I'd prolly start be telling y'all about the journey, but cba today, I wanna get straight into the action!
Right, so after we eventually go to Sloane Square (DELAYS D< SO MANY DELAYS) we picked up the tickets, then went to find food, then went back and loitered abou the theatre for a good few hours.
At one point, we went down the stairs to check out the bar and book shop, and when we went back up the stairs, Colin was in the lobby, talking to the woman at the desk o__o
I maaaay have squealed just a little, but it was justified because HE WAS JUST THERE, LIKE, THERE, NEAR ME O__O
Then he walked past and I just kind of stared after him, like a creeper until he went down the stairs and disappeared.
Then, I managed to seat myself on the front row in the theatre, stage, literally, 2 feet away, and it's a low stage. And when the play started HE WAS RIGHT THERE AGAIN, ACTING LIKE THE ACTING GOD HE IS.
He can aaaaaact, maaan and plays crazy very well. He did slip up and revert to his Irish accent for a while, but hoooly geezus.
The rest of the cast was amazing aswell, very captivating. Perhaps a little too captivating 'cause I nearly had a friggin' heart attack where in one scene, Carlos gets pushed over, and he pretty much landed at my feet. . . Well, still on the stage, but cloosee.
Also, HE'S SO TINY. LIKE, NOT EVEN. . . JUST LIKE, OMG EAT SOMETHING D:
No wonder he gets injured on set, there is literally NO FAT on him ANYWHERE.
Anyway, more about the play:
The story is a little confusing to follow, as Carlos puts it "Talking and thinking are the same thing here", so it switched between conversation and 'thought' a lot, though the characters will respond to the 'thoughts', telling people not to think so loud and such.
It's very cleverly written, so you don't know what's going on until the very end.
And the end is a shock indeed, I wouldn't have guessed it from the way things were going.
It's definitely one that makes you think.
Afterward, we lurked about the stage door forever and accosted everyone of the cast except Colin, who didn't come out. Then we went to McDonalds and came back after the evening performance, and he didn't come out. Apparently he'd already left, disguised himself and off into the wildernessss, so a little disappointed, but at least I saw him OOC beforehand. Day. Made.
Sooo, yeah. I actually wouldn't mind seeing this again, but it's only on for one more week and I think all the tickets are sold out :/
But hopefully another production will be put on somewhere more accessible, 'cause I can't afford to keep coming to London. . .
