shakespeare in love

Shall I compare thee to a summer's slay? Enter stage left for drama club sex eye, well-made wigs, and, as is tradition on this list: Colin Firth. The person most confused by the film this week was: Siena. It was Siena.

Our last film of our book adaptation theme is “10 Things I Hate About You”. We chat about the story structure of the script and the Shakespearean nature of “problems within problems” - particularly in his comedies. Along the way, we couldn’t resist talking about Nolan and action films - and we snuck in two other TIFF films we watched at the end.

Shakespeare in Love is one of the older films we’ve watched recently, and of the period pieces it’s the oldest one. How does it compare with the other period adaptations we’ve watched? And, what does it say about changing audience tastes over time?

If your Twitter feed has been anything like mine the past 3 weeks, it's been all about Gwenyth Paltrow and how she lost half a day of skiing. For my girlies who weren't keeping up with the court room, here's the ~lo down~ on the whole ordeal, and why we're all just a little obsessed with Gwenny P.

We’re delighted to be back for a second season of the podcast. 

Each episode takes a look at a different aspect of the wonderful world of amateur theatre and features an amateur theatre maker talking about their theatrical life, theatrical loves, and the times when they’ve ‘died’ on stage. 

Our Backstage Pass feature takes us behind the scenes at The Crescent Theatre, Birmingham to discover more about what goes into making a great amateur production. 

This month’s episode is a little bit different as we lift the lid on some of backstage business that goes on in not one, but two, forthcoming productions at the Crescent. 

John O’Neill will be talking to actor and musician Hugh Blackwood about his life and loves in amateur theatre.

Meanwhile Luke and Liz will be taking a look behind the scenes of the catchily titled musical ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’ and the Tudor romcom ‘Shakespeare in Love’, adapted for the stage by Lee Hall from the 1998 film of the same name.

Featured guest Josh Elliott tells Mike, Natalie and her younger brothers--UCSB students Greg and Robbie--how he ended up playing water polo at the school in the ‘90s and why the former Good Morning America personality still feels so connected to his alma mater. With the Gauchos set to take on Creighton in a first-round game on Saturday, Josh recalls the talented UCSB team from his freshman year that defeated future national champion UNLV in the regular season and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Greg describes calling the JaQuori McLaughlin buzzer beater in a packed Thunderdome in March of 2020 just before the shelter-in-place order was instituted, and how the pandemic has impacted college life in the year that followed. Josh weighs in on Creighton head coach Doug McDermott’s “plantation speech” and paints a hopeful picture of the Gauchos’ prospects for the first round and beyond. Eyebrow-raising stories featuring UCSB alums and accomplished actors Michael Douglas and Gwyneth Paltrow, and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, should have Isla Vista popping before tipoff.
