King Lear at UNSW (1 Viewer)

[s2ophie]

Who's going to this on 27th August?? Our class is taking a bus up and staying at some apartments somewhere. We're also going to a NIDA workshopping thing the next day.

If your not going to this one, which production have you seen?

We went and saw Lear at the Bondi Pavillion ages ago. I think it was called the hurlos production or something

 

[anti]

i think superfly is referring to the Harlos & Quasimodo production at Bondi Pavilion.

They do it every year or something

Yeah Huy I know.... I have to submit my major work a day early that means!!!! Grrr!!!!!

Well, I'll be there with Soph.... it will be like a post-trials post-major work road trip to Sydney.... I can't believe they aren't giving us shopping time though... after all the stresses they are putting us through, a girl needs to shop!!!!

 

[s2ophie]

i went and saw it last friday night- it was alright...and kind of different as well- c kent and oswald are actually played by women. but the crappy part was that there was no fool and that one actor plays more than one part/character.
