Equivocation
This is the one that I'd been looking forward to the most this season. Shakespeare is commissioned to write a very delicate plot--a political write up involving a sitting monarch--and he can't really say 'no'.
It's a work in progress, and the script I bought wasn't the finalised version. So when I tell all you folks in Seattle that this is a funny, pointed, work, and the end made me cry, and that you should go see it when the company travels North, that means I'll want to hear about your experience. As a theater geek, a history geek, and a polisci geek, this show was a can't miss. It was the only standing ovation performance of the week for me.
We also got to sit in on a post-performance talk with one of the cast members, and I always like to hear somebody talk craft.

And now that I'm home, here are the retroposts from the rest of the week in unlocked format.

A company in Marin is doing it; also LA and New York. I'm glad I got to see it again. I'm trying to drag someone up this weekend for a third round. :)

I thought I saw you!
And I had heard about LA and New York (although I don't have anybody there to recommend it to), but I had no idea about Marin.
I hope you make it.
