Theatre

Yesterday evening was an adaptation of Barber of Seville ("of Saville Row") at Greenwich. There have been some trims of the original, but it could do with a few more, and one of the additions doesn't really work (audience participation policeman's song from Pirates of Penzance!?) but the basics were fine.

Today I semi-randomly saw Happy Now? at the National. It turns out to be the last day, but I hope it's going to transfer because it's very very good. It's been a while since a two hour play had me laughing and thinking throughout.
