    Yay for me!

    I'm going to see Ian McDiarmid in an adaptation of King Lear in Sheffield on Friday night! :D A chance to see the guy in his natural habitat is too good a chance to pass up. He's a stage actor really, I think.

    *can't wait* I hope the play is good too... but Ian McDiarmid!!! :D

    It was great. A really good performance of King Lear, and Palpatine to boot. He was sporting a beard, but there were moments it looked like our favourite Chancellor!! :D

    He probably doesn't want to give the game away too early.

    Oh by the way. After the performance had finished, I asked about him signing my programme. I was told NO. The only way it would happen was if he came out of the Stage Door, which is a rare occurance. Andway, I waited as long as I could, (45 mins), and he didn't come out. Eventually I was informed that all the cast had now left the building. :(

    You should have called for a vote of no confidence.

    Ian McD said the same to me when I saw him at the Lowry in Henry IV . He said he would sign any of my theatre memorabilia at the stage door , but NO Star Wars . Me and my mate left our girlfriends in the bar and stayed at the stage door after the performance . After 10 mins , Natalie rang me to say that she was sat on the next table to Ian in the bar . We went inside and he was more than happy to sign my programmes and tickets from The Embalmer (another I McD play) and Henry IV . After he left the bar , he exited the theatre via the main doors . Anyone else going to see Ian McD , look out for this .
