It's like having a constant heavy anchor pulling the mind down to the depths of lowness. It feels like it's always raining in my mind and there's very little sunlight that is getting through currently. Days feel long, days feel pointless and my whole existence comes into question.</p><p>One of the greatest escapes from my own mental issues has been going to the theatre. That was somewhere I always associated as my 'happy place'. A space I could go in and get lost in a story and be transformed to a different place for a couple of hours. Lately, I've found my anxiety so heightened at a theatre.</p><p>I have always had something I've called 'wee nerves' for as long as I can remember. The need to go to the toilet is mostly in the mind more than in the bladder. I had a really difficult mind night a few weeks back at a show and that's rumbled on to an almost complete mental breakdown. Lately, at the theatre, I've been going to the loo 2 or 3 times before a show and maybe then 2 more times at the interval. It's a hard sensation to describe but it just grips me into a horrible fear. </p><p>That fear starts in the days before a show and then on the day I've even begun planning the structure of the day, I try to eat less and I certainly drink a lot less which I know isn't probably the healthy thing to do but it certainly becomes a help with those thoughts.</p><p>On the flip side of that constant heightened anxiety is depression. It rises up like a roaring monster. Screaming things like "you're a failure" or "you are not enough" constantly. It's like having a little devil on your shoulder constantly makes you feel worthless. Imagine it like that game at the funfair where you have to splat an alien that rises up. You may hit one thought down but then the devil pops up again with a different one. It can feel so heavy to lift out sometimes.</p><p>It is hard to go on when you're sat questioning what is the point. You reach that rock bottom place where everything feels bleak and hard. I want anyone reading this post to know that I do feel safe and I've not hit the point of suicidal thoughts. I recently celebrated being 5 years clean of self-harm and I also don't feel like I've reached a point where that is something I've considered again, but both things do loiter in the back of your mind. It's a constant vicious cycle of that same devil saying "you're not good enough so you should die" or similar. </p><p>The mind is the own worst enemy for catastrophising everything. From making the smallest thing into about 50 thoughts of what could go wrong, or what could happen. That's a difficult thing to balance I find. Plus when your mind is feeling rubbish you become quite self-critical and then hard on yourself and then you're in a constant battle with your own mind about your own mind and it's a hard thing to fight out from. </p><p>The problem of being feeling a burden or a problem to those around you is a constant worry for my mind. I'm sure it's a feeling that we can all relate to. It makes it hard to be social at times because you're constantly worried about someone else's reaction to you especially when you're already in a dark place. I've always been quite bad at small talk except with those I'm really comfortable with so again my mind races about things I can say. Sometimes if I'm seeing someone I'll try and think about 3 or 4 things I could talk about beforehand.</p><p>Another problem I struggle with is a lack of energy and feeling tired all the time. For me, my doctor prescribed me Propanolol a couple of weeks back and I've definitely noticed that I've felt a bit more tired since starting on them. I've had to nap some days just from the sheer exhaustion. Although that feeling of tiredness remains it still can feel difficult to get to sleep at night, but that is a problem I've had for years. I guess the darkness and nighttimes are harder for a lot of people.</p><p>With all this going on I've struggled to find any enjoyment or happiness in the past few weeks. Even if there's a few hours of escape and happiness then a few hours later everything can start again. There's been little pleasure in watching TV or listening to music and those things have previously helped. Even things like having a show come with panic attacks, maybe it's being stood there naked just with your thoughts, I don't know. </p><p>I just want to feel 'normal' again, whatever 'normal' is. I have started CBT again and have had 3 sessions already and I'm hoping that leads to a positive change going forwards. I hope the tablets continue to help me feel a little calmer at my tenses and most anxious moments. I want to feel enjoyment. </p><p>The world has for me been feeling dark and grey lately. I hope every day I'm a little stronger, but some days I also feel a bit weaker and I guess it's learning that it's okay too. It's okay to struggle, it's okay to take time, as long as I don't give up hopefully sunshine will break the heavy clouds and sunshine will shine on my life again.</p><p>I hope you're all doing well. As ever if you're struggling I would urge you to speak to your doctor or a health care professional. You can also contact Samaritans for free.

That night my life changed. I was swept away in to a dream like land of Parisian bliss. I was so impacted there and then by it, so much so that I went again the night after and thus began my Amelie journey.</p><p>Across the tour I saw the production 7 times, those 2 in Leicester, once in Birmingham, once in Malvern, once in Woking, once in Eastbourne, and once in Reading. That meant a fair bit of travelling but every time it was worth it to feel that joy and escapism into a happier world. When the production transferred to The Other Palace it was amazing. That intimate space was perfect for the production. The buzz on that last night was so special. Then we didn't know what the future looked like for the production but hoped there would be one.</p><p>The days after the production closed to original company gathered and recorded the London Cast Album which was released a few months later. There were rumours gathering regarding a transfer to the West End and the Criterion Theatre. But alas we all know what came along and pull a big full stop in our lives.</p><p>The wonderful thing about the album coming out when it did was it kept that connection and hope that the show gives me alive. That special feeling that you get when you let music swell through your entire body. We had a glorious Zoom listen party on the day of release and there was a wonderful Tweet along with some of the cast too. The music in this show is astonishingly good. 'When The Booth Goes Bright' is the song that means to most to me, I just connect to it and on my worst days I've been known to have it on repeat for hours.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigMhbarR3lrCLurjPRBDFZV0M9UN0bgMlUaeMawaBfG0izubAf4HRPEihrwjg4N0pvowgq9wAzesPz2GDmWls9ei4yIIgbVH22aYCgkENjUtS9tkeW6pX5vlxhINhTIjEpUmT9-cr-qKw_/s2048/242265797_404212877725170_6824016867203590280_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigMhbarR3lrCLurjPRBDFZV0M9UN0bgMlUaeMawaBfG0izubAf4HRPEihrwjg4N0pvowgq9wAzesPz2GDmWls9ei4yIIgbVH22aYCgkENjUtS9tkeW6pX5vlxhINhTIjEpUmT9-cr-qKw_/w640-h480/242265797_404212877725170_6824016867203590280_n.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The stage in the Criterion.</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Fast forward to this year and with the West End hoping to open with reduced capacity socially distanced performance Amélie was back being rumoured. Then the Twitter account started teasing a countdown, that countdown led to the announcement that Amelie was back and in the West End at The Criterion Theatre. I can't explain how incredible it felt when it was announced and it went on sale. After a rough year of lockdowns and all that came with it knowing that on the other side we'd get Amélie again was so precious.</p><p>For me this show quite literally saved my life (I know that sounds stupid and over dramatic but it did). Back in 2019 I was at a rock bottom place again, the only way I could see out was you know doing bad things to myself. But then theatre and particularly this show came along. It gave me hope, maybe there are people a bit like me out there - Amélie in particular is one I feel a connection with cause of how isolated she can be/feel. Amélie told me to not give up. It's worth fighting on, and that push has helped me in my recovery. I'm no longer on anti-depressants, I'm going to be 5 years self harm clean next month.</p><p>2020 rocked everyone's mental health but getting through that and then one of the first theatre shows back after so long closed being Amélie was the most special thing for me. That day going down to see it with my pals Emmie and Sarah was just glorious. From the train ride down, the walk we took instead of the tube, the lunch we ate in Leicester Square and then walking up to theatre. That first watch back was so emotional and moving. </p><p>Over the course of the summer I've been 8 times including that first one. I've been fortunate enough to share visits with friends and family and each time has meant everything to me. Trips like the one for my 30th birthday where a number of us gathered at the Theatre Café before the show. </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFILoXyHhNaJ3okVAs0xsvPQM8S0vuMgTw6QyZyoigoOhRAZp04I0QdP4V0kHyj4u7IZTuIWY-Ft2klNHcfIx65ob7BME3V7QoR7IiO7DKFA6S4mKzeVXXfeAJ-47hRTxZa3w5l7UXNb_G/s960/242355652_581416099665590_1166058163049979791_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="720" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFILoXyHhNaJ3okVAs0xsvPQM8S0vuMgTw6QyZyoigoOhRAZp04I0QdP4V0kHyj4u7IZTuIWY-Ft2klNHcfIx65ob7BME3V7QoR7IiO7DKFA6S4mKzeVXXfeAJ-47hRTxZa3w5l7UXNb_G/w480-h640/242355652_581416099665590_1166058163049979791_n.jpg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">A punnet of Raspberries outside the Criterion.</td></tr></tbody></table><p><br /></p><p>This is a show all about connection and to get to share this show with others that you already have a connection to is perfect. I've been lucky enough to make friends through this show with people who will be friends for life - you guys know who you are. I see it a lot on social media too, the impact this show has had on others and the friendships they've blossomed because of it. Isn't that just the most magical thing? I'm quite socially awkward so sometimes meeting people I can be a little withdrawn but I can firmly say that these guys are such lovely humans.</p><p>That connection is enhanced by how much of a connection you can make with the characters on stage. I often wonder which character I'm most alike, and I think I'm a weird mix of Amélie, Lucien and Raphael! The characters are so beautifully brought to life by the outstanding cast of actor-musicians. Truly I've never seen such a talented bunch of people. Each time it still blows me away how effortless they make everything look.</p><p>The cast throughout my Amélie journey has been outstanding. Most of whom have returned, and most of whom I've seen on every occasion I've seen the show. Audrey Brisson IS Amélie, she is so perfectly cast in the role and embodies every little beat of the character. Chris Jared is glorious, he has such a wonderful vocal tone to his Nino and that building chemistry between him and Audrey throughout is so well played out. </p><p>I could go on listing everyone who has been in this show but I do want to give special mentions to Jez Unwin who is just one of the best actors I've ever seen. He emotes with such raw pain and feeling that you can't helped but be moved when watching him. Johnson Willis is another who never fails to move me, I've found a connection to 'The Girl With The Glass' more this time around and the divine vocals of Johnson and Audrey combined. Special love to two remarkable female performances by Kate Robson-Stuart and Rachel Dawson. Both never miss a beat with their sheer talent and musicalilty. Outstanding. Johnson Willis is another who never fails to move. Samuel Morgan-Grahame, who superbly portrays grumpiness in this production but he is also a LOT more than that, I'll have so many fond memories of watching him in this show, especially in the old person scene where he's often mixed things up - the birthday cake moment on that 30th trip was amazing.</p><p>To round this post up I just wanted to throw a HUGE thank you to everyone who managed to bring this show back and maintain it during this difficult time. Even looking back now at how differently things were when the production opened back in May to now September and how we're no longer socially distanced audiences. It must have been a huge risk to the producers bringing it back in this time but I'm sure they're glad they did. All the stage crew, lighting, sound teams have done such an incredible job.</p><p>To everyone at The Criterion Theatre, you've been amazing. I've loved visiting this gem of a venue which is so perfectly sized for this production. The front of house teams have always been really welcoming and helpful and the box office, particularly Becky, has been so good at dealing with enquiries. </p><p>So what next? There's rumours already stirring of a possible 2nd tour but we'll see. First we've one last trip to The Criterion for 2 more shows which are going to be so moving. I've cried more times this week than I did during the entirety of lockdown! There will be a future for Amélie but this cast and this production will stay with me forever. It's been the perfect show in every aspect. Thank you Amélie 'I'll never love anyone as much as I love you'</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0cR58PXZILTTAA3BbmNVRud34zAQAaME0TjxcKnxudFN3E5uw34LqB63ApEvdhPO8blkq2QBkz6KipsWUlbdJ_TXqGyC4LpBs6074WYOvzDrxxYu-LVkH_-TxlJjUL4uLhkK3wdN2VuX6/s2048/242902267_1492765357766399_6164855552076499369_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0cR58PXZILTTAA3BbmNVRud34zAQAaME0TjxcKnxudFN3E5uw34LqB63ApEvdhPO8blkq2QBkz6KipsWUlbdJ_TXqGyC4LpBs6074WYOvzDrxxYu-LVkH_-TxlJjUL4uLhkK3wdN2VuX6/w480-h640/242902267_1492765357766399_6164855552076499369_n.jpg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Reflections in the rain.</td></tr></tbody></table>leicestermarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01727782893820051450noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3657043573642731050.post-70693828487274658722021-01-18T00:00:00.002+00:002021-01-18T20:28:11.863+00:0012 Years On.<p>Isn't it strange how one moment in life can cause such a rippling after effect? How something that wouldn't necessarily affect someone can really mess you up.</p><p>For me, that comes in the case of being assaulted back on the 18th January 2009, 12 years ago today. It's really strange how I can pretty much remember that day pretty clearly but ask me what I did last a couple of weeks ago, not a clue! I guess that's the thing with trauma it's hard to shake it off. </p><p>To paint the picture of that evening, basically, after playing for my indoor 5-a-side football team, me and my friend Lucy came back to mine to chill and watch some TV. It came to around 10pm and the Lee Evans stand up show we were watching finished. I decided we should watch something else for a bit and we did so it was 11pm before Lucy headed home. She only lived about 20 minutes walk away and naturally being dark I walked her home. </p><p>Walking along the main road we approached a bus stop where these 3 guys were waiting, as we got nearer they came over to us and asked us if we knew what time the last bus was, then Lucy got her phone out the check and next thing I know we've both been punched to the ground. It only took one punch and I was down. They thankfully ran off, I think after realising Lucy wasn't a male. I'd a broken nose and was bleeding profusely. In a panic, I just ran to the first house and knocked on the door. The poor guy that answered wasn't exactly thrilled that I'd bled all over his stop step mind you. </p><p>Thankfully we were only a couple of minutes away and one of Lucy's parents came and got us. A police car passed us by and we flagged it down. We went back to Lucy's where we chatted to the police and that. With my nose in such a mess, it was decided I should go to the hospital so my mum took me down. It's in the car I remember realising I'd lost my phone in all the commotion (god knows what make it would have been mind you - pre getting an iPhone!). I remember just crying so much in the car to the hospital. </p><p>The next day there was giving of police statements but sadly neither of us saw their faces or anything cause they had hoods up and it was dark. So nothing ever came from it in that sense. I had to return to the hospital a couple of weeks later to have my nose moved back into place - honestly one of the grimmest moments of my life but that was that. </p><p>I had one session of counselling at the time, the people never followed it up and I guess I didn't feel strong enough to chase it myself. Since then I've completed two full courses of CBT for both anxiety and depression as a result of the attack but even know it still affects me on a daily basis especially when I'm outside walking. </p><p>It obviously affected quite a few things for me at the time, particularly socially and I think that still rumbles on to an extent. It certainly knocked my confidence and has affected my work life too. I remember at the time a few people I knew being like "get over it" but yeah when there's something in the back of your mind like it might happen again or whatever. That whole "get over it" attitude can really hurt too.</p><p>It's weird to think but that whole event spiralled my lowest point a couple of years ago when I was suicidal. That confidence I lost through this one event caught up with me after a verbally aggressive patient at a job I used to work at a doctors surgery. I'm not someone for confrontation and yeah just having someone shout at you for something that wasn't even really my fault and then getting quite personal was almost like being back at that bus stop. I think confidence-wise I'm a little better with now.</p><p>One of the things that really still affects me, and anyone I've ever talked to about this disagrees as I'm sure you might, is the blame. Do I blame them for attacking us? Yes but I also blame myself for allowing us to be out so late. That blame I think I'll always take with me. Whilst I can't sit here and write if we'd been an hour earlier it wouldn't have happened but yeah I think it wouldn't have. </p><p>So 12 years on, I think I'm in a better place than I have been but those events of that night still affect me. With lockdowns and that, I think all our mind have been a bit mush and low moods have been more and more for us all. I think we all miss a sense of normal. Naturally for some this has been an even worse time with the loss of loved ones or people who have been working hard the whole time. My thoughts are with those who have suffered at the hand of this horrible disease and those who have been working so hard, you are heroes.</p><p>The biggest thing that has gotten me through the past few years is theatre (as much as it can in the big void of there being no live performance) and the people I've connected through the shows I've seen or connected too through my blog. This last year a wonderful theatre WhatsApp group has been a blessing and really kept me afloat, the Zooms we've done has been so wonderful - lots of hours with these wonderful precious humans. On those days where you're feeling a bit off-kilter, you can just pop by and see some good faces and release out. I must give a huge shout out to Emmie here cause she's really been a rock. We can just happily natter away about anything. </p><p>Some days I still just sit in my room and think of all the things I've done wrong, all the failings I've probably made. All the questions we all sit and ask ourselves. Am I enough? I don't know. I want to try and be a bit better and stronger this year (granted it's hard with what's still going on). I want people to have a reason to believe in me. I want someone to hopefully think I can be enough for them. Some days the low moods can be a real difficult mental cloud to lift. But I think we're all feeling that a bit at the minute. </p><p>I want anyone that's suffered any life event that's affected to know that hopefully there's going to be sun if we just don't give in to the demons. YOU are worthy. It might not feel like that some days but someone people in the world definitely will think it and that's something I try to remind myself. </p><p>I really hope you're all doing okay, that you're keeping as safe and well as you can be. I don't know what the point of me posting this was but it's been a nice little release.</p><p>Anyway, take care of yourself and be kind.</p>leicestermarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01727782893820051450noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3657043573642731050.post-35472089751396602932018-12-31T20:28:00.000+00:002019-01-04T23:37:36.643+00:00My 2018 Theatre Awards.Hello and welcome to my 7th year doing this blog, celebrating the best of the theatre that I've seen in 2018.<br />

The RSC ran their third social media call and this time Boris was the play to be featured. This time instead of running a scene for us to film/take pictures of, we were given tickets to see the matinee performance of the play and then attend a post show question and answer session.<br />

The play is set in Russia in 1598, when, Prince Dmitry, the rightful heir to the Russian throne is dead and its left to Boris Godunov to reluctantly take the throne. After six years of securely ruling, rumours begin to surface that it was Boris that killed Dmitry to clear his way to the throne. These whispers reach the Chudov Monastery, where a young monk, Grigory, is yearning for life outside his cell. Realising that Prince Dmitry would have been the same age as him, he flees the monastery for Poland, where he intends to post as the 'reborn' Prince and convince the Polish people to help his overthrow Boris and become Tsar. In Poland, Grigory is using his considerable charm to gain loyalty and manpower. He has also caught the eye of the Polish princess, Maryna, who is quite taken with the idea of marrying a Tsar. When he finally proposes marriage he becomes compelled to reveal his true identity to her. She is furious, but eventually agrees to be his wife if he manages to overthrow Boris. Grigory gathers a troop of supporters and crosses over the Russian border to fight, after a first defeat, Grigory rallies the troops for a second, and back in Moscow, Boris Godunov's life, and claim to the throne, is hanging in the balance.<br />

<br />
The play is superbly performed by the company and stars a fantastic cast led by Gethin Antony as Grigory and Lloyd Hutchinson as Boris Godunov. Other cast members include James Tucker as Shuisky, Joe Dixon as Afanasii Pushkin and Lucy Briggs Owen as Maryna.<br />
<br />
This production of the play is a new adaptation of a play originally by Alexander
Pushkin and was adapted by the late Adrian Mitchell and is directed by
the former RSC Artist Director (2002-2012) Michael Boyd. The set for the production has been designed by Olivier Award winning Tom Piper, the lighting designed by Vince Herbert and music is by John Woolf. All of these contribute to a feel of Russia. Though the set maybe a little basic, the acting and use of the space makes up for it. The music definitely feels authentically Russian. All in all, the cast and the production team have produced a very enjoyable piece of theatre, that I'd recommend highly that everyone catches. <br />

After the show, all of us bloggers were invited back to the Ferguson Room at the RSC for a post show Q+A with three of the actors, Gethin Antony (Grigory), Lloyd Hutchinson (Boris) and James Tucker (Shuisky) and we were also joined by the productions assistant director, <span class="st"> Emily Kempson.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="st">Here are some of the questions and answers that were given.</span><br />
<br />
<b>Q - Could you please give us an introduction to the play. </b><br />
A - <b>(Emily)</b> One of the things I found really interesting with this play its that it's got a really interesting production history, in fact this is the first time this uncensored version has been performed professionally in England. The play has continuously been repressed by various censorship regimes and throughout Russian history. The action begins in 1598 with the coronation of Boris which is also the time that Elizabeth The First was on the throne of England, so around the same time that Shakespeare was alive here is what was happening in Russia, that is why its part of the World Elsewhere season. The production was directed by Michael Boyd, and his last production while he was Artistic Director and I think it was a really apt play for him to finish on and certainly felt a good finale to his ten year tenure. It's a really good round up of the Russian work that Michael has done while he's been at the RSC. He trained as a director in Russia and has a really strong connections with Russia, and he also speaks Russian, which is something we all found really useful during rehearsals. Hearing his insight. So along with the connections this play has to Shakespeare's histories it felt an appealing last play for him to do. The rehearsal period was a much longer one than I've ever been involved with, so that was a very brilliant thing for me. It felt for me a very open and creative process in that Michael isn't one of those directors that walks into the rehearsals with a plan of this is how the production will be. It's very much about getting in the rehearsal room and putting ideas together. In the beginning we thought of what the play might say about Russia today, and the Pussy Riot thing was much more recent when we started, and that was on the news and we also talked about what this play might say about Russian politics throughout history and even still today. We also had a brilliant talk by writer Martin Sixsmith where we talked about how Russia constantly finds itself within the grip of an automatic power.<br />
<br />
<b>Q - You said it was a long rehearsal period, how long was it?</b><br />
A - <b>(Gethin)</b> The two shows rehearsed side by side, this and The Orphan Of Zhao and I think it was around 11 weeks, so on each play around 6-ish weeks.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Q - So you might be rehearsing one play in the morning and another in the afternoon?</b><br />
A - <b>(Gethin)</b> I mean some of the actors would be bouncing between China and Russia, and get some severe jet lack. There were actors that would get one call to be here then another to be elsewhere. What was interesting for me, its the first time I've worked with the RSC and the first time I've worked in anyway like this to not only have six weeks within that 12 week rehearsal time, you also get a lot of thinking time. For a British actor it was a real privilege to have that amount of time for the material to seep in.<br />

<b>Q - Over that time were you developing as an ensemble? It's not a director saying this is what you'll do, it comes together as an ensemble?</b><br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> Yes, a lot of its the more the ensemble play together the tighter it becomes.<br />
A - <b>(Gethin) </b>It's something that Michael really encouraged is that collaboration, a genuine collaboration, where anyone in the room can talk about anything, any department, and that create works like the coat fight. Things like that where Tom Piper (designer) brings coats into the rehearsal room and the actors contribute by finding how to use them as well and that hopefully that creates good work.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Q - I was going to ask about the concept of the battles, I though it was absolutely incredible, was it developed in the rehearsal room, rather than anyone having a set plan?</b><br />
A - <b>(Emily)</b> Absolutely, Michael hates planning. There's no real planing.<br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> I mean there was a bunch of coats in the rehearsal room for us all to stick on and they were just picked up and used and then we thought how would you fight with a coat.<br />
<br />
<b>Q - In the original Russian script, did it break into the rhyming couplets that are in the production?</b><br />
A - <b>(Gethin) </b>Adrian Mitchell honoured the form throughout<br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> It was a real shame that he wasn't in the rehearsal room, as he sadly died around 4 years ago. It would have been great to have him in the room because you've got Pushkin and him, two very different writers that came from the same block of wood, it would have been great to have him there.<br />

<b>Q - There's no interval in the production. Was that decision made early on and how did you feel about it?</b><br />
A -<b> (Lloyd)</b> I personally love it, I'm a great fan of watching plays straight through. Sometime I think an interval can slow it down, but in some plays you do need that break. I remember when Michael said it I was thrilled because the first acts only around 40 minutes long.<br />
A - <b>(Emily)</b> The decision was made later in the process. It's a bit of negotiation with other departments as having no interval has implications for them too. It was a really good discipline because we were told that we had to make the production 2 hours or under which I think serves it well.<br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> I was really enthusiastic about offering cuts early on, which I believe is vital, and it's important that you make the right cuts.<br />
A - <b>(James)</b> Michael's a director who likes scenes to overlap, he hates scene changes.<br />
<br />
<b>Q - This was my first time in the Swan, I was really intrigued with the way you were interacting with the audience. Is that something you've done specifically for this production?</b><br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> With The Orphan Of Zhao that is quite a contained show, it's very focused, but with Boris there's always that notion that you the audience is observing us all the time. You're always there to be played with, to and involved. This was something that came out early on in rehearsing.<br />
A - <b>(James)</b> Michael does that, he wants to audience to part of the action.<br />
A - <b>(Gethin)</b> Essentially the writing leads you there.<br />
Q - I think it's partly the theatre.<br />
A - <b>(James)</b> You're in one room, you're having a conversation with the audience yourself as the character. I love it when a single actor is upon the stage, and they'll stand in a spot where they can take in more or less the whole audience and they can talk to them.<br />
<br />
<b>Q - I thought the structure of the play was quite unusual because its monologue, then a little bit of duologue and other wise its story telling. Was that something you felt playing it?</b><br />
A - <b>(Lloyd) </b>Pushkin was such a big fan of Shakespeare, he wants to the monologue, there's bits of Macbeth in it, the comedy tavern is something similar to Henry IV part 2. It's a real lover letter to Shakespeare. You just have to honour what the writer has written, there's nothing else you can do.<br />
<br />
<b>Q - Was the music in the original play?</b><br />
A - <b>(Emily) </b>John Woolf has done all the music, there is existing chants but John did all the rest. There is lyrics to the song in the tavern scene is in the original play. <br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Q - Does working in rep change the mind frame of an actor?</b><br />
A - <b>(James)</b> It certainly changes your energy levels depending on what sort of day you've had. I guess tiredness can sometimes be a good thing.<br />
A - <b>(Lloyd)</b> It brings out different qualities, it allows you to play with different aspects of your own apparatus.<br />

*first time I'd seen this show hence why I class it as new.<br />
<u></u><u></u>leicestermarkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01727782893820051450noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3657043573642731050.post-24269639903996698592012-09-28T21:15:00.000+01:002012-09-28T21:17:54.474+01:00Much Ado About Nothing - Royal Shakespeare Company - Social Media CallThe Royal Shakespeare Companies production of Much Ado About Nothing has just transferred to London's West End and begun its limited run at the Noel Coward Theatre. The show which has adopted a modern day Indian setting begun life at the Courtyard Theatre in Stratford-Upon-Avon. For the show the RSC ran it's second Social Media Call, and lucky I was able to attend (as I was previously for the Social Media Call for A Soldier In Every Son, <a href="http://leicestermark.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/soldier-in-every-son-social-media.html">click here to read my blog on it)</a>.<br />
<br />
I was lucky enough to see the production twice in Stratford and on both occasions I highly enjoyed it. The Indian setting works superbly for the peice, it adds fantastic colour, music and atmosphere to the production. A fantastic company led by Meera Syal (as Beatrice) and Paul Bhattacharjee (as Benedick) act superbly throughout. You get the heart and humour of a great play throughout this version directed by Iqbal Khan and a superb set designed by Tom Piper.<br />
<br />
For those unaware of a social media call (not many theatres do them, but I highly think it's something they should consider with sites like twitter and facebook being so popular and a great marketing drive for any show), we were invited in the audiotorium of the theatre and we were to watch a scene from the play (Act Two, Scene 3) and then have a question and answer session with the members of the company from the scene. For this we were allowed to video and take pictures, and I did both. Below is my video of the scene.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/hdruThAQHCs?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<br />
The scene feautred Sagar Arya (Claudio), Raj Bajaj (Balthasar), Paul Bhattacharjee (Benedick), Shiv Grewal (Don Pedro), Madhav Sharma (Leonato) and Anjana Vasan (Maid). It's a supeb scene that starts setting up Benedick by making him believe that Beatrice is in love with him. A fascinating Q+A followed the scene, for which the director, Iqbal Khan joined the company on stage. The Q+A mainly focused on the Indian setting and was great to hear some of the ideas by the actors and director. <br />
<br />
I also got the joy of meeting another actor from the company, Muzz Khan, with whom I discussed how easy it was or a show to transfer from a theatre like the Courtyard to the Noel Coward, mainly due to the staging, the Courtyard you have the stage and the audience around 3 sides of it to playing to the Noel Coward where the audience is only in front of the stage.<br />
<br />
On the whole I'd highly recommend that you all go and see a fantastic production, as the press reviews come out for the show in London and the couple I've seen being positive, I see no reason that you don't see it. Theres also £5 tickets for 16-25 year olds (ask at the box office). (see links below for how to book tickets). Also if you get the chance to attend a social media call for any production (but especially an RSC one) I'd recommend highly that you attend. <br />
<br />
Below I've included pictures from the social media call:<br />

The social media call for A Soldier In Every Son was the RSC's first, and hopefully something they do again as I found it highly enjoyable and educational. <br />
<br />
The play itself, "A Soldier In Every Son", written by the playwright Luis Mario Moncada and translated into English by Gary Owen, completes the trio of plays under the banner of "The Nations At War" trilogy. (The two other productions being Shakespearen plays, Richard III and King John) A play thats part of the World Shakespeare Festival and combines both the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre Company Of Mexico. <br />
<br />
Set in the Aztec Empire in 15th-century Mexico in a style inspired by Shakespeare’s history plays, the follows three tribes, The Acolhaus, The Tepanecas and The Aztecs and feautures various names that can sometimes be hard to prounounce, Ixtilxochiltl, Nezahualcoyotl and Tlacaelel, being a few examples. These names take nothing away from the peice, in fact as I discussed with my father after reading the reviews, some of which said the names made the peice almost impossible to follow, you wouldn't have gone to 15th Century Mexico and found Aztecs walking around called Dave/Bob or anything alike.Throughout the peice there's a lot of killing, and plotting going on, and it's easily followable and visually stunningly staged.<br />
<br />
The Social Media call itself, involved two of the actors Alex Waldmann (Ixtlixochitl/Nezahualcoyotl) and Susie Trayling (Tecpa/Macuetzin) who performed Scene 3 from the play for us in attendence to film/photograph. After one run through they ran it through again and this was followed by a question and answer session, with Luke <span class="st">Kernaghan </span>(Assistant Director), Alex Waldmann, Susie Trayling and Diego Jáuregui (Techotlala/Tlacalel). Diego being one of the 6 Mexican actors.<br />

video clip of Scene 3 of the play from the Social Media Call<br />
<br />
The Q and A was fascinating to be in attendance of, with a varied set of questions being asked, we learnt how long the process of putting the costumes/make up on takes (somewhere around 2 hours), more of the origins of the play itself, the fact that the period in history in the play isn't taught in schools in Mexico. We also learnt that this company are going off to play the production in Mexico, initially in English with subtitles and then the productions (sets/costumes) will go into the rep of the National Theatre Company in Mexico.<br />
<br />
It was a fascinating behind the scenes look at a fantastic production that I highly recommend you all go and see while you have the chance. Below are a few pictures from the Social Media Call. For the fall set visit my facebook photo album - <br />
