Globe to Globe is fantastic. I was charmed by Pericles (Greek), loved the energy of Troilus & Cressida (Maori) and was thoroughly entertained by Twelfth Night (Hindi).
Travelling Light is actually better on a second viewing, but I still have issues with it. Lauren O’Neill and Damien Molony act rings around Antony Sher (which is not what should be happening in that scenario), and the text.
The Conquest of the South Pole is brilliant, the more I think about it the more I love it. Sam Crane climbing onto a table has never been more arousing and heartbreaking tbh. Andrew Gower is the master of meringue eating and I’ve never felt more exhilarated and devastated by people counting to 179 and almost a half.
All I want from the next series of Being Human is a long flashback episode with young Leo (actor’s name?) because I think Hal’s prequel is my favourite thing of all of season 4.
Noises Off is funny, the second act even moreso because I’ve SMed shows that have gone like that but not as funny as I think everyone else thinks it is, I’m really not a huge Farce fan I think; however Lucy Briggs-Owen is basically my favourite thing in the world at the moment
NT Archive is incredible, the prompt script for Stuff Happens was actually easy to follow which is comforting. I’m not SMing all wrong!
