    I would love Benedict to play the whole Rosencrantz and Guildenstern one day. This one scene was awesome. 

    So I wasn't the only one with this idea.  And if we're casting from the Sherlock family we might as well go ahead and cast Lou as Ophelia.

    Well, I can make a list, no problem. But to whom shall we address it? CVGG? The NT?

    His agency and the NT, definitely.

    Re: Hamlet

    But since we probably would/should sign with our real names, I guess we'd need someone who everybody can PM their names to and who then takes care of sending the message...?

    Hi ladies, wasn´t here for a while.What´s the topic?
    Group reservation for hamlet? Count me in :-)

    I guess everyone of you wants to go there? Someone calculated that there will be over 100.00 tickets to get. (12 weeks, 1600 seats each night.....). Sounds good to me.

    Re: Hamlet

    Hi Sava! No, we were talking about a petition for Benedict to also do "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern" after he is done with "Hamlet".
    But of course we also want to go and see "Hamlet".

    I don't really do this sort of petition.
    But I do hope to get to see Hamlet.

    Re: Hamlet

    This week on BBC radio 4, there's a series looking at famous literary characters, beginning with Hamlet, for anyone interested. I'm sure it'll be on iplayer later today - I'm going to have a listen later as part of my prep for the big event :D.
    Seriously though, it should be interesting.

    Re: Hamlet

    Just to correct myself; it's actually a serialisation of the play itself.
    Just listened to part one on iplayer - not bad; I'm not sure I'm taken with this version of Hamlet himself, but that maybe because I'm comparing to how I think Benedict might play him!

    Re: Hamlet

    Apparently ticket details will be announced in May now.

    Maybe they're still building the rest of the cast and costing the production.

    I hope it's not too expensive. Happy to pay £70-£100 I think...

    I couldn't possibly plan that far ahead!
