"You rip-a dese hippo lighters"?
Sounds like a good play!

oh hahaha

yes, it will be It's a tragedy though, so some of it will be sad, but in a good way if you see what I mean. Last time we did a tragedy I was almost crying on stage in the last scene on the last night!

Aw! Bless!

Tragedies are good. It sometimes feels like you go to see films to watch things explode and to the theatre if you want to feel something.

I know exactly what you mean.

Last night was the first night - it was FANTASTIC. The best play I've been in yet! Our pianist was great too

Unfortunately, the death scene was not as tragic as it could have been because the director was playing Artemis for one night only, and clearly didn't know his lines. Therefore the pianist had to prompt, which he did with impeccable comic timing! Theseus split his trousers, and the chorus spent a lot of time hiding behind tissues pretending to cry but in fact trying soooooo desperately not to burst out laughing! The audience was brilliant though, and didn't seem to mind.

I think audiences often assume certain things to be part of a play, or don't notice stuff as easily as the people on stage do.

Or maybe I'm talking out of my hat.

I think you're right!

YAY! Am at Uni -freshers week is manic!

Feel a little fresher every day!

Is anyone going round with that on their t-shirt like they were at my fresher's week?

No. Everyone is wearing normal clothes :P

We're started learning stuff. It's scary. Had a party last night for my flatmate who's Greek. It was very loud and much fun :D

First lectures
I remember the feeling.

There's always a Greek somewhere.
We had a Greek flatmate. Great guy.

I have two greek flatmates and they're girls and their friends come in and they all make lots of noise in the middle of the night and it's like watching pingu

Like watching Pingu? How so?

Because I never understand a word they're saying, but I get the idea by watching their hand signal + body language

tee hee
