Once


Ackey

Recommended Posts

I am not sure if we have any theatre goers on the board really. I wouldn't even consider myself one to be honest, but see a lot through the Mrs.

 

Anyway, I've now seen Once (based on the uber-low-budget Irish film of the same name) twice and it's taken my breath both times. So much that I am thinking of seeing it for a third time later this year!

 

Anyone planning a trip to the West End could do a lot, lot worse.

Can't believe they didn't have an understudy. Not as if actors are the hardiest bunch is it? Most of them get into the profession because of its famous toleration of hissy fits and cry-offs.

I didn't get to see My Fair Lady years ago when my mum was visiting because she only wanted to see it if her off of Eastenders was in it, but I was ok with that.

I'm off to watch 'Bouncers' in Runcorn tonight. I'm expecting it to be absolute :censored:e for no logical reason other than I hated Max & Paddy.

 

Bouncers is good - although it might look dated (unlike any Shakespeare).

 

Max & Paddy vs Bouncers is probably a bit like Fargo the TV show vs Fargo the film.

Nah, it was :censored:. I dunno, I liked some bits, but that was mainly the nostalgic clips of bad 90's nightclub songs. The acting was OK. I just guess watching thespians tread the boards ain't my thang, dawg.
