Which night did you go, and where were you sitting? I wept profusely. Cordelia was played intriguingly headstrong and spirited, I thought, but ... didn't amount to much. So ... yeah she sucked. I did very much like Gloucester and Edgar, though - and of course the Fool. I liked the whole Tsarist Russia thing they had going! uh uh uh and Edmund was totally hot, help, I'm going to hell
Ian McKellen apparently went for the Sunday matinee of Asian Boys 3 - curses!!! I almost went but didn't, in the end. NOW I WILL REGRET FOREVWAH!!! One of Lisabel's friends was actually seated behind him and complained bitterly afterwards that his head was blocking her view through the whole play. WELL HELLO I BET I COULD WATCH THE BACK OF IAN MCKELLEN'S HEAD FOR 3 HOURS WITHOUT COMPLAINING omg
I went Friday, Circle 2 seats because Djinn was with me and we have no money. I was rather 'nuh uh sistah' at Cordelia - I mean dude, you're telling your dad 'Oh I love you very much' in a more, uh, subtle way, but then she was all 'YEA OLD MAN, I LOVE YOU WHAT THE HELL YOU WANT' - so, uh, nuh uh sistah! I liked Gloucester and the Fool very much, especially since Fools are usually hit or miss; this one was a definite hit. And old men make me sad, so I was relieved Gloucester was good. I have to admit I've never had much love for Edgar or Edmund [Lear is all about the old dudes for me] so I wouldn't say I was particularly moved by them, or anything. You! You find foreign men so hot so easily.
I wouldn't have gone for Asian Boys 3 - but curses! Sir Ian! And omfg, who is this woman, I'd have paid money to sit behind him and watch the back of his head for 3 hours too! [As it is, I paid money to watch him act. Aha.] whut

Also, uh, I loved Sir Ian in King Lear. All the bits that made me teary had him in it, but Cordelia kind of sucked. Yes.
