Theatre Goodness
Feb. 10th, 2005 01:47 pmWhilst looking in vain for information on whether Martin Shaw is really going to do A Man for All Seasons in the West End this year, I came across some even more exciting London theatre news. Well, for me, anyway.
The National is staging Henry IV, Parts One and Two from mid-April to July 2. Which is good news, because Henry IV, or Part One at least, is one of my all time favourite plays. The really great news is that Michael Gambon is playing Falstaff and Matthew Macfadyen is playing Prince Hal. And the rest of the cast is stacked with old pros like David Bradley and John Wood. Way too freaking cool.
Now it just remains to come up with a scheme to get to London for this, while still keeping enough vacation time and cash on hand in case the rumoured Martin Shaw production happens.
