I really loved Benedict as Victor, he did the role so perfectly it was astounding, how anyone could honestly think it was a bit part is beyond me. I mean I understand if someone prefers the casting the other way round but the things I've heard about the role of Victor are not true at all. It's a fantastic role and Benedict does it complete justice.
I'm very excited to see the reverse casting now, although my head is full of how perfect this cast was haha!
We went to stagedoor not really expecting Benedict to show, but we had 2 hours to kill before our coach so we thought there was nothing to lose. We did get to experience the wonderful moment of George Harris who plays Frankenstein's dad, coming out of the stage door and wandering down the road singing Kung Fu Fighting to himself. Although stagedoor was very quiet there was only about 10-15 of us there. We were just about to leave when Benedict came out of a side door and everyone flocked over to him, but me and my friends who were quite far away just stood and watched to see if he was gonna sign first. He put his helmet on straight away and tried to load up his bike while people just shoved stuff at him, it was obvious he just wanted to leave, so we left without bothering him. I don't know if he did end up signing for those people eventually but I would never want an autograph from someone I had forced into giving me it.
Haha thank you so much! The thing drove me made when it came to actually making it, so I'm glad the final product looks good :D
