Why? I was very reluctant to book Dr Faustus at RSC cos it was directed by my non fave Maria Aberg but it wasn't that bad... I couldn't cope with Matter of life and death years ago at the NT. But thought it best to give her recent Dream a try but I also hated it - walked out Was A Matter of Life and Death was one of hers? I had forgotten that. That means she's got spots 2 and 3 on my list of Worst Things I've Ever Seen. |

In Jan/Feb, it'd be too dark for journalists to read their presspacks now that the Board has switched all the lights off. |

Was it? It always used to be jan/feb for the summer season. Do we really think she will have a season ready to announce in a matter of weeks?

The advantage of never clearing out my email is that I can confirm that up to 2011 the season would get announced in the first week of January, since then its varied between December, November and late October.

Emma Rice in final Front Row interview last night on Globe.....admits mistakes and not being too upfront with Board about the imposition of mics,sound,lights,etc.One can only wish her well in what was clearly not a good match.
Michelle Terry highlights the audience as core to her mission and suggests a very vibrant season with local,national,international focus.Please Michelle-reinstate the small scale tour. Really enjoy hearing her thoughts and feel Globe will be a fantastic place.
Sometimes a balance in planning is called for where Original Practices can be in shared repertoire with explosive work style.
Roll on 4th Jan.

I have been told that the summer tours are back on. At least Oxford is expecting to play host once again next year. Whispers that it might be a Dream. But that is very unconfirmed

My hope would be something like As You Like It and The Tempest.
My fear would be Antony and Cleopatre and Othello.

Was wondering what role Rylance could play, he will play Lear one day but that was obvs on this year so Prospero seems likely. Terry will presumably play one lead role, Rosalind?

The Globe disliked the bright lights and the amplifiers, not sure of their position on gender blindness, could Terry play Iago as Othello has already been leaked I believe.
Not sure how this would work with Emilia being male as if jealous of Casio, how he is not jealous of ‘Emile’ would be difficult to get around.
Just had a pint of strong Winter Ale so my mind might be slightly befuddled.
Whatever the season contains there is a sense of excitement building which can only be positive.

Terry's already played Rosalind at the Globe, I expect she'd rather branch out a bit.
