Bailey and King Lear: London II

[selenak]

Yesterday was actually a sunny day, and I met the St. James pelicans on my way through the park

Are the St. James pelicans still eating pigeons if they can't find fish?

[selenak]

The pidgeons I saw survived, but I got some pretty good shots of pelicans nonetheless (will post in a while).

Thank you for the review link! I'd love to see Langella play that role, too.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on that particular production of King Lear!

I think the Cinema in Munich is doing a live broadcast in a couple of months, and it sounds very much worth watching. So I might check if there's still tickets available.

I hope they'll do a live broadcast of this one; definitely worth checking out, my few nigglings notwithstanding.

Grandson, I think. I think he's the son of the son that was in Midnight, if that makes sense.

[selenak]

It does, and Kalypso tells me he's the grandson as well. Three generations does definitely a theatrical dynasty make!

Hmm. Sounds an interesting Lear - and omg having Lear kill the Fool :( - but not necessarily one I'd like. I dislike Lear enough that the play is my least favourite Shakespeare, and Edmund's human-villain moments are most of my favourite ones.
