Avoiding reality one-ish fandom at a time. Currently OFMD and GO obsessed, but DW/Sandman are just waiting in the wings. Also, theatre!! 🎭 Old. She/her. Biromantic, grey ace.
Well, Playing Burton was amazing, and Matthew Rhys was brilliant. Hope that Michael Sheen enjoyed it too!

Ahhh... Guess who's in the audience for Playing Burton! Welsh. Not Martin Sheen. 😂😂😂

All these grey, overcast days are doing a number on my energy levels, but on the upside today is Playing Burton day, and I'm looking forward to seeing Matthew Rhys.

Queen released “Somebody to Love” on November 12, 1976, as the lead single from their fifth studio album, A Day at the Races. Which means next November it'll be 50 years old.

Why is LCC Winter trying to confuse me? I bought a David Tennant talk ticket, and the current schedule still shows that. But now on Eventbrite there's only a more expensive Double Doctor ticket on offer that's David and Sylvester. Are there two after hours talks? Or is my ticket now invalid? 🤦‍♀️

Off to The Choir of Man again, I shall miss this show so much when the Arts Theatre shuts for a refurb. In the meantime, my favourite, Sam, is on as The Romantic again tonight. 🎉

Ticket and accommodation booked! Very excited for this, the Millennium Centre is such a gorgeous venue.
Rebellion begins. Tickets are now on sale for Owain & Henry, by Gary Owen, co-directed by Michael Sheen and Steffan Donnelly. See @mchshe.bsky.social as Owain Glyndŵr in a fiery reflection on the “hotch-potch of peoples who became England.” 🎟 Watch the full video and book now wmc.org.uk/owain+henry

Looks like I'm seeing Will Arnett in conversation next month!

Hmm... Considering getting a ticket for the Will Arnett in conversation at the BFI.

Now that I've recovered from Rhys's attempt to end me, back to feeling proud of myself for not getting lost on my way to Co op Live! Duran Duran Halloween I am ready for you!!

Had a brilliant time seeing Wendy & Peter Pan at the Barbican last night. The sets were incredible, a whole ass pirate ship with plank on stage! Toby Stephens was having a ball chewing the scenery as Captain Hook. And Dan Krikler was born to be Peter Pan, so good at flying and sword fighting. 1/2

I missed out on seeing Hot Mess in Edinburgh because the storm shut the venue down. I'm booked to see it in London today and we have weather warnings for wind and rain. It's beginning to feel a bit cursed!! 🌬☔️

Saw Bret McKenzie live last night which was a lot of fun, but the venue had SIX chandeliers! Now that's overkill!!

What do you mean it's been one whole human year since Rhys was at the premiere of That Christmas!!

Just realised I'm seeing Melanie La Barrie in two completely different shows this weekend, and I'm very much looking forward to it!

Well, Minnie Driver was really rather awesome in Every Brilliant Thing. A serious subject, but dealt with in a way that involved humour, joy, and a lot of audience participation. I did a proper double take when At Last was one of the songs used though. 🤦‍♀️

And suddenly I am in my feels about another of my forever fandoms. Now, if we're talking (really) old guys, Highlander certainly delivers! And yes, I remain a Methos appreciator.
I am forcing my friend, whose mom was in Highlander fandom and wrote Highlander fanfic back in the day, to explain Highlander to me. I will be updating this thread with my findings.

Former Superman actor Henry Cavill was injured while training for the Highlander reboot, delaying the film.

My Ollie Tompsett loving heart just skipped a beat at the lead casting for The Greatest Showman premiere next year. Guess I'm planning a trip to Bristol... maybe with some pirate-y exploration thrown in!

Looking back through my photos has made me realise it's rapidly coming up on two years since I was in New York for NYCC. 😯

According to my OTD it's a year since I impulsively zipped off to Cardiff to see the lovely Carrie Hope Fletcher at the Millennium Centre (not at all influenced by Jamie Muscato being her special guest for the show 🤭).

I love seeing all these new people being fundamentally changed by the experience of seeing Rhys do his stand up live. He really is the gift that keeps on giving!!

Why is the Christmas Magic shop already set up? We haven't had Halloween yet!! 🎃✔️ 🎄❌️

OK, cheap preview ticket acquired to see Oh, Mary! in the West End. I can't wait to see Mason Alexander Park on stage again.
