National Youth Theatre- not quite for the win.
Well, I'm back in the land where theatre is expensive and only for gays and womens.
It was enjoyable at times (mostly when we were pissed) and not so enjoyable at times (mostly when we had to do yet another abstract representation of binge-drinking youth in today's society).
BUT.
Next year they might be doing Hamlet (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, PLEASE). Speaking of which, two people have told me now I'd make a good Ophelia. Am slightly worried- does the world really view me as a borderline mental case? With optional naivety and subservience, depending on how you play it?
Ah well. The rest is silence.
When we were drunkenly casting people as Shakespeare characters (come on, we're drama students), I was Viola from Twelfth Night, so that's good. Despite the fact that I'm actually playing Olivia from Twelfth Night.
AND.
The most important bit of the course. THERE WERE PEOPLE WHO LOOKED LIKE OTHER HOT FAMOUS PEOPLE.
So there we go, that's NYT! More Real Life updates soon, I promise!

Ok, first up, MAC BOY.
I looked at him and went "OMFGKLEFJGWRO.....SQUEE!!!!" He doesn't just loom like the spitting image of how a teenage Mac would look but he even moves like him and he's funny and witty and cool and relaxed and really clever (has a passioj for English, wants to do it at Cambridge- be still my beating heart!)
Unfortunately, he had the drawback of not liking me back so never mind.
Anyway, PICTURES:


Unfortunately he liked this girl, who was disgustingly pretty. Didn't really stand a chance, did I?

Ok, next Ollie. In his last year at cambridge doing English (double points) and looks so much like Colin Firth, I actually went home and watched Bridget Jones' Diary. These aren't the best pics of him though...


And finally Simon, who looked vaguely like David Tennant but was voted most fuckable by the group (excuse my language) because he's honestly just brilliant. Funny, talented, quirky, not afraid to take risks- he's pretty wonderful. And here are pictures (on the left in both):


So to round off, here's two of the whole group. See if you can spot me with my new haircut...

That is me in the green! Thanks!
I almost died of the unobtainable pretty...

Argh, that's frustrating. Alas. It'll be great anyway, I'm sure, but that is a bit pissy.
