Getting excited to host @TheAuthorGuy and @austintichenor this weekend at the last four performances of the world premiere of the stage adaptation of Fool! And get Chris's latest, Anima Rising!
Sure, Guy Pearce and Adrien Brody are great, but the movie is a cliched, meandering, melodramatic mess that of COURSE argues that it's the destination not the journey in its closing line. Ignore the hype.
Seriously considering hanging onto the Scroogian sideburns after CHRISTMAS CAROL ends, and rocking the Isaac Asimov look year-round. What say you, Hive Mind?
"Some say that ever ’gainst that season comes
Wherein our Savior’s birth is celebrated...
And then, they say, no spirit dare stir abroad...
So hallowed and so gracious is that time."

Did you know the co-star of one of the great screen comedies is also a huge Holmesian who’s written a series featuring Sherlock’s brother Mycroft? I’ve read the 1st two and they’re fantastic. Apparently the man played some basketball, too. Legend.
The RSC Podcast turns 18 (!) this week & THE RING REDUCED turns 30 (!!) this year! To celebrate both, @austintichenor @ReedofRSC & Adam Long reminisce about our 24-minute operatic epic. HEAR HERE (or wherever you get your podcasts)! @AmericanTheatrereducedshakespeare.com/2024/…
My only solace this morning is that the lives of old white people are also going to get immeasurably worse in ways they haven’t anticipated…but they will at least deserve it.
