I love going to the theatre. It doesn’t matter what sort of theatre; musical, comedy or something far more serious, I enjoy it all. There is something magical about sitting in the darkness waiting for the show to begin.
A friend invited me to see The Girlfriend Experience at the Royal Court. He knows the author, Alecky Blythe, and asked me if I would like to see her latest play.
I hadn’t seen anything like it before; I’m going to steal some text from my friend’s blog ………'Good to see a bit of well acted straight drama, with the twist that all dialogue is verbatum, and that the actors wear headphones throughout so that they can perfectly mimic the various pauses, breaths, swallows and other verbal tics of speech.’ I couldn’t put it better myself. No, honestly, I couldn't.
I loved every minute. Thank you.
