Sorry for the double post. Well, I won't be able to see SRB in Timon of Athens but I will be able to see him in this! As will anyone else that has access to the National Theater or the NT Live viewings. Broadcast to be on 1 December, 2011. Yahoo

Funnily enough A Cousin, when I posted my Shakespear comments I re read my earlier post about Collaborators. I was looking on the National website yesterday and found the tickets go on sale for this, this week. So I will be going as a birthday treat in November. Can't wait to see the big man on stage. I suspect that is where he shines the brightest. Smile

Definitely dragging Mr AC to this one for NT Live - not that he complains about that! lol! We LOVED Complicte's A Disappearing Number. It was an incredible piece of theater - even on a screen.

AC, is the other chap, Alex Jennings? Is that the actor who played the Havensworth Foreign Secretary? Do we have the Home Sec vs Foreign Sec, on stage?

Those of you who enjoyed SRB as Towers, might be interested to hear him on the other side of the spying game giving his rendering of George Smiley in the BBC adaptations of the John Le Carre books - available on the BBC Radio Iplayer now, so no geographic restrictions for those of you outside the UK. Anna Chancellor also stars. Well worth a listen.

I can second this. My SO got me the CD set for my birthday. Its well worth a listen.

I'm planning to see The Collaborators via the NT Live programme at my local cinema on Saturday. Anyone been yet?

I went to the National Theatre on Saturday to see it. I won't spoil it now, other than to say it was very good. Probably an 8 out of 10 for me. Well worth going. Actually, you will probably see more than I did. Odd stage layout in that the stage was haphazardly in the middle of the theatre. The second floor where I was sitting was right over the stage so you either had to sit on the edge of your seat and hang over the rail, or you had to slump back in your seat and look under the rail! I am obviously too blinking short!

Enjoy Smile
