David Tennant after Richard II
#David Tennant#adventure#after months and months of looking forward to this#i got to see richard II saturday evening#i ended up going with a girl also staying in my hostel#because after chatting with her#i learned that she liked david tennant#and shakespeare#and when she asked if i thought there might be tickets left#i told her i had an extra#because my friend had to cancel on me#for very legitimate reasons#anyway#this performance was wonderful#david tennant being phenomenal of course#as well as the rest of the cast#i thoroughly enjoyed bolingbroke's performance#as the actore made it very clear that he was just tired of everyone's shit#and was thoroughly convinced he could do it better#this was my first experience with this play#i've seen the henry plays#and read 1 henry iv and henry v#and i really liked this#and thought it was an interesting characterization of richard ii#also i had never done anything like wait outside a theater for an actor's appearance#and this was actually pretty low-key because it was a smaller theater#and not everyone who went to see the play cared about getting autographs/pictures#so it was a good first time
