The Dispute on Hamlet's "To Be or Not To Be" at the RSC

A robust discussion ensued when veritable actors of the Royal Shakespeare Company who've played Hamlet competed with each other on how the soliloquy "To Be or Not To Be" should be delivered. What comes next is most unexpected. 


The look on all those acting faces...

London


Finally went to that place with the, with the . . . oh the clock! and the people with the accent!

It's not cliche to me because I have always dreamed of coming here, working here and living here. That was of course until I saw her current state, to which I was saddened by. 

Nevertheless, despite the dirt from Heathrow to Warwick to Bromley-by-Bow and the absence of the old chaps with the Chapeau and umbrella, London is still a destination worth visiting because depending on your perspective, every one I saw there, whether indigenous or transplanted - were trying. 

Whilst there I got to:

Eat fish and chips the traditional way at "The Anchor"
(built in the 1600's)


Mess around with the red phone booths:
(I needed a quid...) 

Hear London Calling:
(it said "Vrooomm!")



See a Shakespeare Play:
(w/ the English Patient as Prospero)


Photograph Monet:
(well, figuratively speaking.)


Sample Punk Sweetness:
(ah, life's ironies...)


Meet the Invisible Man:
(w/ visible neck)


and,

Soak up the Thames at night.


- Among others anyway...
