First of all:

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I'm wearing my Wicked t-shirt (it's the more Halloween-themed item of clothing I have, and I can't be arsed dressing up properly). Later on, I'm going to carve a pumpkin, and hopefully watch Scooby Doo on Zombie Island. :D

Now. Last night, I went to see John Barrowman live at the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester. Ice_Elf and ( Read more... )

Had my last exam (possibly EVER!) today! It was ... OK.

I went in feeling nervous, but mostly really tired. :S Not the best way to enter an exam - but hey. I checked through the paper and found some questions that looked good, then dived straight in.

Well. That was a long absence. I really didn't mean to have a month-long hiatus over Easter, but what with one thing (birthday) and another (family stuff), I just didn't have time to update. I am heartily ashamed about this, however, and shll try to make up for it. First of all by making a Very Long Post About What I Did On My Easter Holidays. :P ( Read more... )

James-next-door just introduced me to Glee. It's ... it's so yayful! (OK, this may be a pun, but it's not intended as such:) *glee* He's going to give me more soon. ("James is acquiring me some Glee." God, that makes him sound like a drug dealer. XD)

Also, I went to see Iolanthe at the Assembly Rooms Theatre. It's a Gilbert & Sullivan, and it was ( Read more... )

Last night, my parents and I went to see a life production of the TV show 'Allo 'Allo at the Lowry theatre in Manchester. It was brilliant!

Now, I've always loved 'Allo 'Allo. It's one of those old comedies that just hasn't aged at all, and is still just as hysterically funny now as it was way back when. But this stage production was just ... it ( Read more... )

I can now die happy. <3

Went to see Oliver yesterday, on a whim. It was a lot of fun, and well worth going, but ... to be honest, I think I'd rather have stayed here. Everything that could have gone wrong did.

I went to see The History Boys today at the Theatre Royal in Newcastle.

Oh. My. God. What a fantastic play! Alan Bennet at his finest, that I'm certain of! (Why couldn't they teach us The History Boys instead of Talking Heads at GCSE? It would have kept my attention for far longer ...) I loved every moment of it - even the slightly-dissatisfying ( Read more... )

Download for Erin. Please.

I went home this weekend! It was so much fun!

We went out on Saturday afternoon to watch Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors, which was hilarious, and then we had dinner out at Frankie & Benny's, and then from there to see Oh! What A Lovely War, Joan Littlewood's masterpiece. I wanted to see Oh! What A Lovely War because we ( Read more... )

I will be brief, for I am tired ...

In case you don't know of The Producers, the Plot for the Gene Wilder movie would be here, and info about the musical version (which is what I've just seen) is here. Don't be offended, please?
