It's not every day you see SIR IAN MCKELLEN'S PENIS

I get the distinct impression that rye bread does not, in fact, like being toasted.

Wait, that's for another post. Let me tell of how I saw Gandalf's "Magic Staff".
I saw King Lear. I saw it with my eyes. I saw the shit out of it. I am reduced to childish and cheap adjectives and phrases when discussing how I saw the living definition of THEATRICAL AWESOMOSITY!

Yes, groan at Shakespeare if you must, or groan instead at my lameness for being "impressed" by "something". God forbid I experience a tad of unselfconscious joy for once, you cunts.

But really, it is all about "How Magneto Went SOOO Crazy He Took His Clothes OFF". This is what William would have called it if he'd invented the X-men first.

And while the other actors were excellent, they all looked like poos on sticks compared to "Kurt Dussander Won WWII". (IMDb to get the joke. I did!)

The best bit? But really, actually, totally the worst bit? The show's run is over here in ye olde Melbourne-Town! See, if you're local, and you missed it, you may have missed it forever!! And I'll likely never see it again, either. ZMOGWTFBYOBBQ

One day, I will tell this story to children. It will be such an awesome narrative, the children themselves will be arrested.

theatre, nerd, film
