1984

Heather Manley and I saw CBC's production of "1984" tonight and it was CREEPY. Needless to say Heather emitted a really loud "What the HECK?!" a few times and found things to laugh at that no one else caught. She's the most fun to see a show with. It was a gripping production, and there was one point where Heather and I were both cringing in horror, hiding our eyes behind our hands. If you know the show, you know what part that was. Most impressive was Travis Franks as O'Brien, the bad guy - just creepy. We were also trying to figure out where we had seen Jennifer Reed before - she stood out as the Cockney landlady. A fascinating and disturbing play, and now I need to go watch some funny dog videos on youtube so I can sleep.
