Here's more stuff on Hamlet.
Just watched a screening of National Theatre's Hamlet at @NCPAMumbai. Such a moving performance.

Yes, it was awesome! I'm not even a Cumberfan. "Benedict Cumberbatch's Hamlet comes into its own on the screen" https://t.co/sshne72KqG

And George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion.

Higgins is insufferable, but the text does call him out. Eliza is amazing, and Mrs Higgins very charming.

I must say I love saying Enry Iggins in my head. Such a breathless quality to it.

And the end is so much better than the movie #MyFairLady. Eliza rejects the "strong men" and chooses the man who adores her.

Also, this happened.
Gotta tell you, never been so relieved to see shit.
