Since you did your top 13 plays of 2013 I've been wondering about your top 13 acting performances of 2013. Who comes after Heff? ;P

Oh goddd, that’s going to be hard! I’ll have a think and do a photoset of them later :D


(I like that you just assume Heff’s top - I’m so obvious xD)

does anyone want me to upload any scenes from my coriolanus audio?


any requests or anything?



Um, I’m fairly certain there shouldn’t BE any Coriolanus audio. They don’t want pictures of the set and I’m…






Wow. I have no words either. As a theatre academic, trained actor and as a theatre board member I am saddened at such an attitude. It shows a lack of respect for your fellow audience members and most importantly for those performing on stage and those who created the performance.


Leaving aside the issue of rudeness for one moment. Theatre is a live experience, that is the point of going to the theatre vs going to the cinema or watching something at home. In the case of Coriolanus that is precisely why tickets are so hard to come by, people are clamoring for the experience of seeing Tom Hiddleston perform live (or in my case Mark Gatiss) you could hear and see him on a recording any time, the point is the expereince.


Yes plays are now often recorded for posterity, by archives or theatre companies and as an academic I am grateful, but they are not a replacement for the real thing.


But I digress a little, what you are suggesting is rude. It’s rude to those on stage, it’s rude to those around you to be recording firstly without their permission, secondly in a way that could disrupt the performance. By saying other people are ‘pissy’ also shows a flagrant disregard for your fellow, respectful audience members.



no one at all around me


neither those in the audience


nor those on stage


get interrupted, disrupted, nor even KNOW im recording audio



They might well find out, however, if it starts circulating the internet. It’s not about being disruptive, it’s about being disrespectful. Actors on stage and the production team behind it all do not want shitty audio recordings getting shared all over. That’s why it isn’t allowed, and I’m sure you’re a very special little flower and all, but you’re still not entitled to break the rules everyone else manages to abide by. When I did my degree dissertation on theatre recordings, I interviewed actors who told me how very strongly they hated people making bootlegs, not because it disturbed them during the performance, but because it meant something substandard was all over the internet afterwards. Whether anyone can tell you’re doing it at the time or not, it does not stop it being disrespectful to all the people involved busting a gut to give you a nice evening of entertainment. And as for the theatre I actually work in, if we found someone recording, we’d have them removed, maybe banned. I wonder if anybody’s tweeted the Donmar a link to your posts yet…





@темы: as a side note it doesn't help the fight against elitism when people go and behave like a pile of shit, because it gives people a brush to tar everyone they like with, ARGH

Hey hey hey I just remembered something I meant to tell you all at Christmas but I forgot because I’m a twat:


My dad works with a good friend of Tom Hardy, and this year in their Secret Santa this guy drew the name of a lady in the office who’s a really HUGE fan. Her present? A Tom calendar, which he got him to sign on every single page, AND a video message to her phone from Tom saying Merry Christmas.


AND THEN


They all went for a drink after work, as they often do, and as they walk in the pub, who’s sat there waiting for her? Tom fucking Hardy. And I just thought I’d tell you all, because seriously, what a nice guy to go and take time out of his day to make a friend of a friend happy at Christmas :)






@темы: tom hardy, honestly, also my dad began telling me this by saying 'have you heard of tom hardy? he's an actor...', i'll probably find now that she's on tumblr herself and this is old news, OF COURSE I HAVE, YES DAD

I liked it that she didn’t say ‘gay’, but left it open. I liked her. In fact I loved her. I want her and Sherlock to hang out in bars all the time, every night.



John-sexual. The word you are looking for is John-sexual.



At least we had a coming out of sorts. A clarification that Sherlock is not heterosexual. They both knew in this moment that it would have been so much easier for Sherlock if he was.



no but I don’t see this as Sherlock denying he’s into women, in fact I think it’s quite the opposite. Sherlock doesn’t know how to be in a romantic situation, like he said in his best man speech he’s rude and an ass hole and doesn’t know how to get on with people essentially. I see this scene as the bridesmaid telling Sherlock she wished he was ordinary, like any other guy at the wedding that she could hook up with, because then maybe a one night stand would turn into coffee, which could turn into lunch, dinner and so much more. At the end of the episode, he looks to her and we see him excited for a moment, maybe wanting to dance with the bridesmaid, until she points out the man she’s with and Sherlock walks off upset. This isn’t Sherlock saying he’s “gay” or “john-sexual”, this is Sherlock wishing he could have a relationship, be social and maybe one day John could be his best man.



Yessssssssssss. It didn’t even occur to me it was anything to do with John or being gay or asexual AT ALL until I came on tumblr! (And realised I probably should’ve expected that to be the general reaction :P) Sherlock just comes across so…so individually wrapped, I guess, to steal the line from Fortysomething because I don’t know how to explain it better. ‘Gay’ was one that didn’t come to mind once when I was trying to think of less vague words for what she was thinking!
