HOT SHIT.

From a (recent?) interview:
Dominic: Yeah, I wanted to do a play in London, Billy and I looked into doing an adaptation of 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead,' somewhere in London but I think there’s something like two or three productions of it going on this year, so we bagged on that one.

::squees in an octave normally reserved for calling dogs::

Okay, you have to know me to understand my reaction. Suffice to say that 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead' is very much my favorite play ever. I've practically got it memorized. And the mere thought of Billy and Dom doing it is making me gibber like a maniac. Even though they've decided against it. Just. GAH. That would rock my world.

I started jumping up and down and actually honesttogod HOOTING when I read that part of the interview. I am theatre geek! Hear me roar!

Rosencrantz! Guildenstern! Dom as Rosencrantz and Billy as Guildenstern! Holy shit, I may die. And then I'd haul my ass to London, watch the play, and then die a second death in the middle of a crowded theatre, because, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead, motherfuckers!

Such a fantastic play! Tom Stoppard is king! And, and, the movie is fantastic! Tim Roth and Gary Oldman and Richard Dryfuss... and now thinking of Dom and Billy Dom and Billy... dead, this is me absolutely *dead*.

"We're actors. We're the opposite of people." HOT DAMN!

...and isn't the play absolutely fantastically *slashy*? Eeei!

Now will return to my studying. Ehm. Yeah.

Dude! I would've switched Dom and Billy's parts around, but yeah, either work. And can't you just see Ian McKellen as the Player? Or, heh, Elijah, that would be a kind of quirky way to do it. It might sound strange at first, but *think* about it. It could work, I say!

Best. Play. EVER. ::thinks about Dom doing the "dead in a box" speech...GAH::

"You can't not-be on a boat." "I've frequently not been on boats..."

See kaydee swoon.

Join me in my boycott of the other productions! :)

Yeah, that sucks. Let's hope they at least do something else together.

Oh, I love R&G Are Dead. My favourite line is the one where Rosencrantz says (okay, I have the play but I am too tired to look up the exact quotation) says "England? I don't believe in it." and Guildenstern replies "Just a conspiracy of cartographers, you mean?"

Love that play. It would be just fantastic if BB and DM could do that. Would like to see Lij on stage too, bet he would be really good.

Heh. Yeah, the cartographer conspiracy. Good stuff, that. Augh, what I would pay to see Dom and Billy doing R&G on stage...
