beccaelizabethI've been looking in leaflets. There's three different Shakespeare plays in the leaflets, that I could go see and maybe like. One of them is only on until this Saturday. The Tempest, at the Maddermarket Theatre Norwich. Saturday is before my new person starts working, and also I don't know them well enough yet to know if we want to go to Norwich. They might be unhelpful like the last person. So that wouldn't work. So I phoned my mum to see if she wanted to go see a play.
... in theory I could have been going to see plays with mum since always, except it didn't occur to me before, and also I don't think I wanted to.
ANYway, mum says it probably won't be any good, because the stage is tiny and there were hardly any people and it's not like it's the RSC and the tickets are only £10 for the expensive seats. Apparently plays are better if they cost more. And, okay, "staged by members from across the region" don't sound too much like 'we is real actors', but if they know all the words and turn up and stuff, do it matter?
I haven't seen much plays, except on school outings, but I was vaguely of the opinion that even bad Shakespeare still has good bits, ie the words.
And also I want to practice going to plays because I have a plan that involves seeing plays I actually do want to see all of, and I don't know if that'll be difficult.
I mean people probably won't throw things at my hat, but they weren't generally supposed to do that at the cinema either, so what do I know?
So, anyway, have until Saturday morning to decide. As long as there are tickets. I don't know.
There are also plays that are not Shakespeare. Since they are also not the three whole plays I've ever studied that weren't Shakespeare I have no clue what they're like. I decided I could go see them if they sound a bit interesting, like cinema.
Except cinema usually sounds more interesting, and is cheaper, and easier to get to.
And generally speaking DVDs and TV and such are quite a lot interesting too, and I don't even have to go out.
But thinking like that isn't helpful.
