Frankenstein...

Went to an amazing show tonight. Not theatre, not movie, but both: a broadcast performance of a live play at the National Theatre in London. The play in question being Frankenstein, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller. And there's a trick to the play. On alternating nights, they switch roles: Cumberbatch as the monster, then Miller as the monster. A few weeks ago, maaseru and Pim went to see the show (without even telling me about it, the fiends) with Cumberbatch as the monster. Tonight, I went with them and with Vicky and Marion to see it with Miller as he monster.



( It's quite a show. )

I hope to see more of these filmed plays - the production quality is incredible. Of course, I'd also like to go to more actual National Theatre shows in London, but I hear the tickets are hard to get these days. This beside me being, as it were, a pauper.
