Henry V...

[fajrdrako]

Went tonight with commodorified and fairestcat to the Company of Fools production of Henry Vheld in Glebe's Central Park - a couple of blocks from my place.

As usual, I loved it. Wonderful points about this production, besides the usual "not taking it seriously, but making it good" aspects that are their stock in trade:

• Fake yellow tennis balls as ammunition, thrown by the audience at the French
  
• Great diction from the girl playing the King. Good costume, too.
  
• Good use of fuzzy puppets - especially when the boys with the baggage are kills and we get dismembered fuzzy puppet parts strewn onto the stage
  
• Lovely plastic armour on the Dauphin, and good hats
  
  
  Afterwards we went to Bridgehead (where I had an iced cappuccino, very nice) and then to my place, where we talked about Lord Vorpatril's Alliance and comics, and played Words with Friends in tandem. Enjoyed it muchly.
