Oh my God.
I just found out that Patrick Stewart will be playing Claudius in the RSC's 2008 production of Hamlet. PATRICK TOO-BLOODY-MARVELLOUS STEWART - and David Tennant! TOGETHER. In effing Hamlet! This is too much. *thud*
Let me explain. I love Hamlet. No, I don't think you understand. I LOVE Hamlet. I've seen the play more than half a dozen times, I've been in it as Ophelia, I watched all the films, and I would still go to see it again and again and again. And again. And this dream cast, that's just... yes. I can die happily once I've seen it. Except I can't, because I really want to live on, finish drama school and play Ophelia again. Speaking of which, I don't know who was cast as Ophelia, but she had better be really brilliant.
And apparently Tennant is also doing Love's Labours Lost? Wooonderful. *rubs hands* (I can already see next year. When I'm not at drama school, I'll be working. When I'm not working, I'll be at the theatre. When I'm not at the theatre, I'll be desperately trying to catch up on all my favourite telly programmes. Should be fun!)
Wahh, I want money. Now. There's still so much on right now that I have to see! I still need to see Mark Gatiss in drag with Diana Rigg in All About My Mother. And Peter Davison in Spamalot! And and and-
*sigh*
At least I've applied for several jobs today, and will apply for more tomorrow.
