OMG Whee

Doing a search of a "things to do in Edinburgh" website I discovered that Man of La Mancha is playing while I'm in town. If I can't get tickets to that, Starlight Express is also playing. Of course, seeing Starlight over La Mancha is a little like settling for a kick in the nuts over a blowjob on the assumption that they're both about manipulating the genitals.

Nothing stopping me from catching a show in London and Edinburgh (and Paris - though I think I'd prefer the opera in that case as I won't be able to understand them anyway).

Of course, after reading conejita_diabla's reply I double checked. Either the website's database was wrong or I messed my dates up by a month. In either case Man of la Mancha is not playing. Damn them to hell.

Heh...I'm personally very intrigued by DR in Equus. I think were I on the same continent, I'd have to go. It just seems so utterly wrong, and yet has had such good reviews...

[jamesq]

I'd only go if the play intrigued me. Seeing DR's wang is just not that interesting to me.

[conejita-diabla.livejournal.com]

No, it is the play that's the intriguing part. It's some very deep, dark, fucked up material, and the fact that he supposedly does it very well fascinates me. I don't give a damn about his wang...

[jamesq]

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that that was why you were interested in seeing it. It's just that every review I've read made a point of mentioning DR's full frontal nudity.

No, fair enough. It is a really fascinating script, though, was the only point I wanted to make. ;-)
