HAMLET!

The Independent Shakespeare Company could not have picked a better time to open their show – the last* week of production for the thing I was on was the first week of their run. I got through the week on coffee, nerves, and brilliantly executed Shakespearean tragedy alone. This is how I appeared to the rest of the studio:


*turned out to be second-to-last, but was still the most intense

Now that I have an abundance of spare time on my hands, I can finally do the doodles I've been wanting to do, in some cases since I first saw the show in August.

DOODLES! And yammering. )

If you are lucky enough to live within driving distance of LA (how often do I say that, eh?) you still have a chance to see this show, because they've extended the run to March 17th – it's Saturday and Sunday this weekend, then Saturdays after that, all shows at 5pm.

GO HERE >>>>> iscla.org <<<<< and get yourself a ridiculously underpriced ticket to some serious quality. GO! I am not joking about this, you do not want to miss it.

ETA: I FORGOT! How could I forget? Interviews and suchlike!
Hamlet interviews his Mom and Dad - Or, rather, David Melville interviews Bernadette Sullivan and Luis Gallindo. There is much of interest and amusement ... and Louis L'Amour! (You'll get it when you see it.)
Melissa Chalsma on KCSN - I think this interview might only be available till Sunday ... anyway, the co-founder and Artistic Director of the ISC talks about the company, its ethos and origins, its place in the LA theatre scene, etc.
David Melville (again) on Hamlet and the ISC's future - Interesting anecdotes and exploration of how one runs a theatre in 'the new economy', especially when the biggest event in the calendar is offering professional entertainment for free.
