The Odd Couple

I was at the theatre yesterday (the Kings in Glasgow to be precise ) seeing The Odd Couple. Don't suppose anyone else here saw it, but it was very good. Andy Gray and Gerard Kelly (Glasgow's pantomime gods) were Oscar and Felix.

I saw posters for some Rocky Horror Show 30th anniversary thing - anyone know when it's on?

 

The Odd Couple

- no comment

Andy Gray - not the Sky Sports 1 football pundit. That would rock!

Rocky Horror Show - //slips suspenders on and dances to the Time Warp...

too much of a coincidence to ignore......

it is our destiny

 

Woohoo!!! Now, would it be silly to buy a Super-Soaker d'you think?

Want to borrow my RHPS video Az? I could throw water and rice at you to make it more interesting too... And you can get dressed up

 

Who needs a video!

 

//packs rice and Magenta wig

//goes to London

 

and once again.....

Get a room, you pair

:: prepares bucket of iced water ::

 

//glances at bucket of water

//sniggers

Sorry Double D, but it'll take more than that to tame Az!

 

oh, too true... too true...

//snuggles

 

:: adds bromide to iced water ::

 

//goes in search of room...

 

//wilts @ bromide

//perks up at prospect of room!

//checks wallet...

Gerard Kelly has appeared in a touring production of 'The Odd Couple' before - with Craig Ferguson. Yes, Craig Ferguson played the East Kilbride Village Theatre as the Matthau character. This is, of course, before he did an Alan Cumming (or did Alan Cumming do a Craig Ferguson?), got a six-pack, went to America and started appearing in sitcoms as English characters with accents that veered wildly from Somerset to Dudley, Blackpool, Sarf London then into Wales in the space of one line of dialogue.
Kelly was the better stage performer. He's the better actor overall I'd say. Andy Gray, Chancer to Kelly's Willie Melvin in 'hit' comedy series 'City Lights' is a good tragi-clown. Craig Ferguson is salvaged only by the fact that he was Bing "I used to be Peter Capaldi's Character, Me" Hitler.

 

I'm going to see Rocky Horror in MK next February.

(oh...and I came outta retirement to post here - I hope yous appreciate that )

 

We might be going to see Rocky Horror in Glasgow this Saturday !
Its on at the Kings, with a matinee show at 6pm, so it might just suit the meet-up crew

edit:
oh, I've already said that....

I'm losing the plot maintaining all these meet-up threads and PM conversations, really I am
