Many years back I was playing The Hobbit for PS2 and I was in a real difficult part. Young me didnât know about rotating saves yet. I save my game just as an enemy surprise attacked me and took the last of my health. I learned a hard lesson that day.

The final recording I made before I lost my nerve was one I couldnât miss purely due to its notoriety. Hamletâs oft quoted âTo be or not to beâ is not one Iâve performed before so I didnât have it memorised in any way beyond the first few lines but is wonderful nonetheless.
Hamlet is one of those characters that I feel (And obviously, a large number of other people also feel) can be played by absolutely anyone regardless of age, race, gender, or any other factors. He is just so universally human and speaks to a certain deep part of all of us that I feel there is absolutely no limit to how he can be portrayed.
Next I recorded one of my absolute favourite monologues from my (current) favourite of Shakespeareâs plays. The opening speech from Richard III. Act 1, Scene 1, Line 1. 1,1,1.
I love the character of Richard and heâs so fun to play and I hope one day I will be able to do the character justice in a full production of the play. I secretly have plans hidden away for the point in my life where I can afford to stage my own production of it both directed by and starring me because Iâm greedy and a little bit narcissistic. Nevertheless, Richard III, a great play, a great character, and a great villain. Three thumbs up.
First up is Sonnet 18, better known by itâs opening line âShall I compare thee to a summerâs day?â I had to perform this last year as part of a production called âIn and Out of Loveâ which was a collection of scenes from various Shakespeare plays around the central theme of love. I love Shakespeareâs sonnets almost as much as Shakespeare loved his sonnets (Which, at 154 sonnets, is A LOT) and would someday like to incorporate them somehow into a full performance. Donât ask me how, itâs just a feeling I get sometimes.
The ole 400
Seeing as itâs the 400th anniversary of Shakespeareâs death and 452nd(?) anniversary of his birth, Iâve decided to record myself doing a few of his pieces.
Theyâre veeeeery rough and veeeeeery spur of the moment so they may not sound very good and I donât have great equipment so I apologise for the terrible audio quality.
Shakespeare means a lot to me. His work intrigues and excites me. Itâs filled with problems to solve and knowledge to uncover while still giving me an opportunity to perform and act as is my one true love. I feel that you never truly know Shakespeare until youâve performed his works.Â
Itâs a dream of mine to someday end up performing with the @thersc and @shakespearesglobeblog (The Royal Shakespeare Company and The Globe Theatre). I adore both of those institutions and everything they do. Iâm extraordinarily bummed at the fact that Iâm so far away while all the Shakespeare Live stuff is going on and so very very little is happening in Wellington regarding Willâs 400th. I would have loved to see the Shakespeare walk in London with so many great plays and actors being shown. Iâm extremely grateful that I had the opportunity last month to travel to London and see both The Globe and a production of The Tempest in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse (Incredible venue by the way), I just wish I could still be there today to join in on the festivities. Itâs a shame that, as far as I know Shakespeare Live isnât being broadcast in New Zealand because I would be the first in line for that.
David Tennant is a huge role model of mine. Heâs my idol and the kind of person and actor I aspire to be someday. His mastery of Shakespeare is inspiring and his range of performance and acting ability is at a level I can only ever dream of reaching. I just wish I could see him hosting Shakespeare Live with Catherine Tate whom I also greatly admire.
Without further ado, I will start uploading the few recordings I managed to make before I lost my nerve.
Shakespeare lives!
Dear Parents,
Just because you think your kidâs incessant screaming is cute doesnât mean anyone else agrees.Â
Sincerely,
I Have Three Term Papers to Write and Iâm Up to My Eyeballs in Revenge Tragedy Do Not Tempt Me
Do you mean my last 13 hour international flight on which, seated in my vicinity, there were no fewer than THREE screaming children? At least one of those babies was screaming their lungs out at any given point and often when one started it would set off the others. This is a cautionary tale about why you should always take earplugs on long-haul flights.
I went on a big walk around central London today. Checked out Regent St, Saville Row, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Square, etc. Made sure I knew where RADA was for my audition on Saturday. This is all getting way too real. I had a time, now I have a place where I'm going to take a crack at my dream. I keep swinging between being super confident and freaking out.
So, as some of you already know, I'll be leaving for England on Monday where I will be auditioning for RADA. This is one of the biggest, scariest, most exciting things I've done in my life and if it goes well then I'll have taken another step on the road to achieving my dreams. I'll hopefully be away for all of March, that is if I get into the second and third rounds of auditions, then if I get into the fourth round I'll have to go away again in May. I'm both terrified and exhilarated. I still can't believe I've actually reached this point from that moment last year when I was joking about auditioning. A huge thank you to everyone that's supported me up until now, all those people who believe me and keep telling me I'll nail it even when I'm convinced I'll bomb. If you don't hear from me, assume I've died of nerves.
Game of Thrones actor Finn Jones to play Iron Fist
Marvel has found its newest superhero: Game of Thrones actor Finn Jones has landed the coveted series lead in Iron Fist.
Jones, who plays Ser Loras Tyrell on the HBO hit, will take on the role of the martial arts master in the upcoming Netflix series, EW has learned.
Iron Fist is set to be the fourth Marvel and Netflix collaboration, following Daredevil, Jessica Jones and the forthcoming Luke Cage. Scott Buck (Dexter) has been tapped as showrunner.
In the comics Iron Fist is Daniel Rand, who at age of 9 travels with his family to a lost mystical city called Kâun-Lâun. After some tragic twists of fate, Rand is adopted by cityâs ruler and taught advanced martial arts and the mystical power of the Iron Fist. As an adult, Rand returns to his native New York City and begins a career as a superhero.
Some fans have urged Marvel to cast an Asian actor in the lead role, though others countered that picking an Asian actor simply because the heroâs ability is martial arts would be a stereotypical move.
Jones, who also appeared in British shows such as Hollyoaks, is set next to appear in season 6 of Thrones.
Netflix and Marvel had no comment.
Much more to comeâŚ

If I fight him and win will I gain his power and become one step closer to being the ultimate Finn?
I compromised with myself and bought Plantera on Steam for like $2 and I think thatâs the best decision Iâve made in a while.

*Curtsies* Hey Duke, I'm going to London in March and I was wondering if there were any good/great bookshops you know about that I should hit up while I'm there?
*Curtsies* You really must visit Foyleâs. If youâre into theatre (and just guessing by your avatar photo Iâm going to say you might be) the Globeâs bookstore, the Samuel French shop and the National Theatre Bookshop are pretty awesome. The used book market under Waterloo Bridge isnât actually that much cheaper than anywhere else but itâs right next to the National Theatre so you might as well stop there if youâre in the area. Charing Cross Road has a long string of used bookshops, and if you want like the mothership of used bookshops, thereâs Skoob (and Judd Books is a little ways down the road). Gayâs the Word is a pretty famous queer bookshop also in the same vicinity. The Russian bookshop in the Waterstones in Picadilly is pretty cool, and if you want hard-to-find or underrated works by women writers, Persephone Books is a gem. The worldâs biggest travel bookstore is on Oxford Street (though atm I canât remember the name of it and Iâm too lazy to look it up), and other ones you might check out if thatâs not enough to keep you busy are Daunt Books and Primrose Hill. You might also look at everyoneâs contributions to this post here, because Iâm sure there are a few I havenât mentioned.
Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched âPoison Bootsâ and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chinoâs foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking âHow many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for meâ.Â
There should be a blog dedicated to theatrical urban legends. Like that opening weekend of Dracula where Dracula (still hungover) vomited all over the audience during the first stage direction that everyone has a friend of a friend that worked on the show and was there.
or the one where the bridge never came out for Javertâs suicide and so he just pretended to stab himself and then lay there until the lights went out
best story i heard was when a friend of mine saw a show where juliet forgot to bring the dagger out on stage so she just ripped the squib out of her chest and blood squirted everywhere
During a passion play a friend of my brother was supposedly in, one of the roman soldiers who was supposed to stab jesus on the cross and accidentally grabbed the wrong spear- he was supposed to grab one with a fake tip, but instead he grabbed one with an actual metal tip and, well
Jesus screamed âJESUS CHRIST YOU STABBED MEâ.
Since that Jesus had to be taken down due to a bad case of stab-itis, the backup Jesus came in, but he weighed significantly less than the original Jesus- which would have been fine, except that at the end the cross was supposed to ascend upwards with Jesus on it, and the weights hadnât been adjusted.
So Jesus, instead, ROCKETED UP into heaven (or, just, above the stage).
This is wild from start to finish
I was in Peter Pan once and one night at a performance, the adhesive holding our Hookâs mustache on was wearing off. It was near the end with a big fight scene and when he got attacked, he let his mustache fall and went âYOU RIPPED MY MUSTACHE OFF!â in a scandalized tone and it added a new note of hilarity to the whole scene (which was supposed to be funny anyway)
In my seventh grade play, which was a midsummer nightâs dream, Thisbe didnât have a sword so she stabbed herself with a coathanger
My junior year we were doing Romeo and Juliet and after Juliet poisons herself it was supposed to go dark and sheâd get off the stage. well the light crew accidentally turned them back on and Juliet who was sitting up slammed back down on the wooden bed with a loud bang. To which my theater teacher says into the com âzombie Julietâ and everyone who heard that had to keep as quiet as possible while our eyes were filling with tears.
i attended my countyâs performing arts high school majoring in vocal studies, (mostly geared towards musical theater and opera styles) and once a year we got a field trip to new york (we were in jersey, so itâs not exactly far). we would do one touristy thing, an actorâs workshop with friends of our teachers working in various performing industries in nyc, and then see a show.Â
my first year doing this, our industry contacts were 1 actor, 1 casting director, and 1 producer to get different aspects of the business, and they all gave us amazing advice and told fantastic stories. the actor in question was Zazu on Broadwayâs The Lion King for several years, and told the best story by far.
in The Lion King, there are only two pieces of pre-recorded noise in the whole show. one, when Pumbaa does a MASSIVE fart while fighting the hyenas, and the other being Mufasa saying REMEMBERRRRRR as Simba climbs Pride Rock. the actor told us while struggling not to laugh that, during one nightâs performance, someone forgot to flip the tape of these pre-recorded noises.
so, at the end of the show, the great climax where Simba finally accepts his place in the Circle of Life, the heavens parted and-
PFFFFFFFFFRRRRRBTFTBTBFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
everyone froze. and then all ran off stage positively HOWLING with laughter.
the lesson: sometimes there are fuck ups you just canât recover from.
During a high school production of Beauty and the Beast, where I was assistant costumer and assistant prop master, our director decided that we needed to spice up Gastonâs introduction. You know: in the movie, when Lefou runs in trying to catch the duck/goose that Gaston has just shot out of the sky?
Originally, the actors were going to stroll on stage with our Lefou hauling in the really neat (and real!) taxidermied deer head that we had found in a local thrift store. Now, two days before opening night, our director wants Lefou to run in from off stage and catch a stuffed duck that Gaston has just shot. This, of course, requires two things to work properly as a scene: a gunshot noise, and a stuffed duck.
The gunshot noise, we had covered. Blue-collar, redneck school? Guns a plenty to record. The stuffed duck? Harder than you might have thought to obtain.
Three hunting stores, two taxidermists, and one Pet Supply Store â˘, Iâd finally found a semi-realistic pheasant squeaky toy. What follows is an account of the ways this dog toy managed to be the nightmare prop of the six show run.
Opening Night: The stagehand, who was supposed to drop the bird from the ceiling catwalk, missed his cue and didnât drop the it. Lefouâs actor rolls with it and does an excellent job of looking around foolishly before getting cuffed upside the head by Gaston. The stagehand then drops the bird squarely on Gastonâs head. Cue laughter.
Saturday Matinee: Different stagehand throws the bird instead of dropping it and beans Lefou directly in the face with the prop. Lefou falls over. Cue laughter.
Saturday Night: Bird is missing during curtain call. Director hauls the deer head down from itâs place on the tavern wall and tells Gaston and Lefou to revert to the old blocking i.e. no gunshot, no bird, just walk in with trophy. During Gaston and Lefouâs conversation, gun shot sound goes off and a stagehand throws the bird onto the stageâŚfrom the wrong side of the stage. Lefou and Gaston stare at it in awkward silence for a solid thirty seconds before Lefou makes off-script, subtle joke about Gastonâs gun going off late instead of early. Cue adults in the audience laughing.
Sunday Matinee: Director begs the stagehands to get the cue right at least once. Gunshot and bird prop go off without a hitch. Lefou accidentally catches the prop when it falls from the catwalk. Heâs so startled that he caught it that Gaston runs right in to him. They drop both the gun and the bird props, and grab the wrong prop in their scramble. Gaston spends the rest of the scene gesturing dramatically with a stuffed pheasant, instead of a gun.
Sunday Night:Â Director is fed up with bird prop, decides that Lefou should just carry bird prop in after gunshot happens off stage. Lefou accidentally squeezes the prop during the intro conversation, startling both actors into silence with the squeaky toy noise - apparently, neither of them realized it was a dog toy.
Monday Elementary School Show: Lefou walks on stage with the bird. Accidentally drops the prop during conversation with Gaston. Gaston doesnât notice the dropped prop and steps on it. Cue depressingly sad squeaky toy noise. Cue ten years olds laughing.
In a dress rehearsal for Peter Pan, Wendy forgot one of her lines and started singing the star spangled banner and the audience was singing along and people got emotional
Once during the closing night of our high school production of south pacific, we were havin our pre-show pep talk, and our director reminded everyone (mostly seniors) not to go off script to try to be funny. Of course we had one lead who decided to ignore this advice. So during one scene where the sailors were âfishingâ at the edge of the stage, he decides to pull up his rubber fish, make a comment about how it wasnât big enough, and throw it back into the âoceanâ, which of course, was the audience. Now, this probably wouldnât have been too much of a problem if he had gently tossed it, since it would have landed right behind the pit. But naturalt, he decided that this fish had to break free in the most dramatic way possible, so he winds up and chucks this fucking foot-long rubber fish with all of his strength. So now imagine the stage crew, all of us huddled together, silently screaming as this limp fish goes sailing over the heads of the audience in what looks like a low-budget reenactment of free willy, only to slap some poor parent across the face. I swear, you could almost hear the chorus of âmmmm whatcha saaayyyâ rising from all those backstage. From that moment on, all rubber fish were ferociously guarded by yours truly, under the direction of our stage manager.
This post gets better every time it shows up on my dash
My Junior year of high school our drama club put on Peter Pan,which involved the construction of a small boat fashioned out of scrap wood,plaster and an old wagon. A few of the actors who were cast as pirates had to ride the boat-wagon down the aisle to the front of the theatre,which had a concrete floor that sloped. About halfway down the brake they were using to control their speed gave out,and they crashed into the front of the stage at high speed.The entire boat imploded. The actors just sat there in silence for at least a full 10 seconds in the midst of the wreckage before my friend Adena screamed âABANDON SHIPâ and they all jumped out and took off running.
My school once did a parody of Cinderella and I was Cinderellas dog. At one point Cinderella, the Fairy Godmother, and the dog had to flea the ball. I thought going down the stage steps wasnât dramatic enough for âfleeingâ so I launched myself off the stage and landed painfully in the center isle about three rows in accompanied with a very, very loud thump of face on concrete where I laid there like a dead fish for a while. At this point Cinderella and the Fairy Godmother got to me, not knowing what to do they stepped over me and continued running. But Cinderella had forgotten to loose her shoe so half way out of the room she chucked it back where it hit me in the head. I bolted upright and ran shrieking hysterically out of the room. A moment later the Prince came down to where the shoe was picked it up, looked dramatically at where I had exited and said âI hope that dogâs okay.â completely forgetting his line. Â
This may be my all time favorite post.Â
I was once in a production of âHello Dolly!â and the two leads were complete jokers and would prank each other during rehearsals all the time. The rest of the cast never thought they would do that during a show, but they told the chorus (separately) that they each were planning to add some tongue into the final kiss between Dolly and Horace. Of course, we told neither of them about the otherâs plan, so during the very last show, we were all waiting in the wings to see what would happen. What happened was we ended the show with the two leads violently frenching each other on stage as the curtain dropped. They started dating two weeks later.
Last year we did âOnce Upon a Mattressâ and the jester was supposed to do a somersault off of a stack of like 3 mattresses and then the minstrel and Lady Larken would be covered up with a blanket, but during one show the jester knocked down one of the mattresses and we had no time to fix it so we had to throw the mattress on top of them
This post holy shit
Golden.
This one time I was in a production of Black Comedy by Peter Shaffer. Towards the end of the play thereâs a part where a character has to fall into a trapdoor. The one on our stage had a little crawlspace that led to the wings where the actor could get out. The problem was that the trapdoor in the wings was really noisy to open so we had to just leave it open for the entire show. Nobody told the rest of the actors this though. Cut to opening night and Iâm in the wings, waiting to go onstage, pacing back and forth to get myself ready when suddenly thereâs no more floor underneath me and I end up falling through the trapdoor for real with an almighty bang. The stage manager gave me a WTF look and i had to limp onstage with a shredded leg.
I saw that you watched the Force Awakens. If I may ask, without spoilers, is there an after credits scene I should stick around for?
I had debated sticking around to see if there was, but literally no one else was staying in the theater, and if there was one, I figured SOMEONE would have, you know? But Iâm pretty sure I was the last one to leave, which is a telling sign that there probably wasnât one.
But if anyone else knows, feel free to chime in.
I think JJ Abrams said in an interview that thereâs not an after-credits scene.
Star War is great

The only review that matters.
