No, I haven't seen it - I'll be in the theatre waiting for curtain up in two weeks time. Am glad to see so many good reviews around the place, though - I was a little worried that the publicity photos played on Dan's physique so much so it's good to hear that the production itself is properly focused on the play rather than Dan. I don't know the play, but it sounds as if it addresses themes I'm deeply interested in. So hopefully it'll be £52.50 (eek!) well spent. :)
Was amused, though, to read in The Times this week that the producers reckon that only 15% of the tickets have been bought by Potter fans. I mean, how do they know? Are they assuming that anyone over a certain age (like, for example, 21) is there because they heard of the play before they heard that Daniel and Richard were in it? Or was there some sort of declaration of intent required that the nice man who sold me my ticket forgot to tell me about?
