'The Tempest' (1 Viewer)

[*Pooja*]

:wave: howdy every1 !

4 every1 doing tempest:

there's sum ppl that r going 2 perform 'the tempest' play at parramatta riverside theatre. ..um it says lennox theatre or sumthing though...

go to http://www.riversideparramatta.com.au/whatson/whatson.asp to find out exactly about this. they have this little bit of info on it.

i reckon it will be really good, seeing the play cum 2 life. it'll probably cause ppl 2 like the text more and 'appreciate' it (which is what my teachers hav been trying 2 do and which i havent exactly truly done).

i dunno if its going 2 be good or not but worth going, i think. teachers at my skool recommended it. :uhhuh:

yeah, that's all...

its crap.. ive read a couple of reviews in the paper and they say it was crap as well.. especially the fact it was outside and u could hear sirens.. though its not as bad as their king lear performance
damn globe shakespeare..
i thought it finished at riverside and its in bondi or something now.. but yeh most ppl were forced to go to it with their grade already

 

[Leochic_86]

OOOOOOOOoo0o im going to it sooN! have u guys been to the one in Glebe the Valhalla?

 

[kimmeh]

mm indeedy i heard the productions from riverside are all crap and the one in bondi was the best. Im going to see the Tempest production at night soon though school's policy now that they cant take us to any more excurions..

i went to the one at parra riverside with the globe threatre..
it was an okay production, but the stupid thing was that it was TOO FRIGGIN cold to enjoy the play.

when did you go? cuz we're going in a couple of weeks and im guessing it'll be colder then.
and we also get to see "Away" at the Wharf Theatre on the same week! I wonder if that'll be good?

i saw the tempest at parramatta, waste of money and time. It got crap reviews. No help whatsoever. Still hate the tempest!

i saw it too about three weeks ago. i must say the tempest is one of shakespeare's worst plays. i bought the program just out of curiuosity. some of the actors couldnt act for peanuts.

i though Caliban was sexy hahaha lol, it wasnt all that bad... Prospero was a monotoned dickhead though... and yuh it was ok i reckon... good to get out of the house and spend some time with mates

 

[dark`secrets]

is this the same caliban wearing a g-string?

 

[kimmeh]

not more of a g-string, but moreover him wearing normal y fronts and pulling the lines up his crack

 

[dark`secrets]

kimmeh, you saw this production by shakespeare globe?

umm the company that put on the play? i dont think it was shakespeare globe, but "the actors college of tv" or some sort, other than that, i dont know what you mean

 

[*Pooja*]

i liked it though!!!!!! caliban's and ariel's acting were the only good ones.
prospero - sucked totally, i expected more life and power to just spring out in his speech
miranda - a lost case and nut
ferdinand - lets just say that he was...gay?
i thought the way caliban guy could stand in his posture he was in for so long. (the rude bits werent good coz they were rude)
it was good only with ariel and caliban. everything else seemed to be on the downs...

caliban's 'g-string' was just a back to front pair of undies pulled up his crack lol

 

[persephone]

OMG! You saw his g-string too! Wasn't that so nightmarish! Everytime he came ontot the stage I had to avert my eyes so I couldn't see through his see through skirt! And wasn't Ariel just so gay? He shaved his armpits!

 

[dark`secrets]
