Britain’s got Talent!

Check out this performance from the reality show ‘Britain’s Got Talent’.

 

Equus

Of the many things I have been doing here, this has to be the weirdest. I saw Peter Shaffer’s play Equus at the Richmond Theatre here in London. The play has been a topic of many funny (and pun-ny) jokes among friends and it was nice to experience Alan Strang’s obsession with horses first hand.

“Did you get to see Daniel Radcliffe’s weeny?” was the first question Abhishek asked me when I told him I saw the play. I know many people will have the same query so let me clarify. No, I didn’t see his weeny. Instead I saw Alfie Allen’s weeny because it is he who now plays Alan Strang. Of course, it didn’t matter whose weeny it was because both prospects are equally repulsive from my point of view.

Coming to the actual play, it was in fact a very well made piece of art. The performances were brilliant and the script was both powerful and subtle at the same time. The use of lights and minimal props was a highlight. I felt the nudity could have been avoided, although it was done very artistically. All in all, I did not regret spending twenty four pounds to see it.
