Wow, no posts in this thread for over a year before the weekend, what a bunch of cultural philistines we are.
Last year I think I only went to the cinema twice, having a real job means no more day tickets. On the plus side, having a more-than-minimum-wage job means occasional reasonably priced tickets.
I saw Chimerica when all the hype was at its peak and thought it was fantastic, really engaging piece of theatre with a great set and some excellent acting. It was generally well-praised but some people criticised it a bit for the Chinese segments. Having never been to mainland China I can't really comment on that, but everything looked great and the story was really well-told.
I also saw A Doll's House (this production) which was great as well. Again, I wasn't familiar with the story at all but it was instantly accessible, shocking and sad.
