Ryan, I think you've just pitched a movie there...

Did you have a mouse in that windmill?
A mouse!
Where?
There on the stair
Where on the stair?
Right there. A little mouse with clogs on.
Well, I declare going clip clippity clop on the stairs. Right there.

It is a veritable hit in the making. Now all we need are some writers, some performers, and lots of money.
Oh, and some "cake" for Ryan.
Perhaps we can work in a scene for Ryan and Marie Antoinette...

My nomination for scriptwriter - prompted, admittedly, by fond memories of In Bruges - is Martin McDonagh.

Now all we need are .. some performers.. Imelda Staunton should be up for this, after her tale on the Graham Norton show about a mouse running around inside her coat in Gypsy.

Just a reminder that it is standard level members booking today from 10 a.m. Very straightforward - I was on in about 5 minutes. Pretty good availability for the shows.

Sub-plot: a pet cemetery in the Netherlands. A man is admiring the floral garden, particularly the hollyhocks. He asks the gardener how they grow so beautifully. "Well" the gardener replies, "the cats and dogs, we bury properly. Small creatures - hamsters - we simply turn into a puree in our blender, and we use that as fertiliser on this garden." "That is interesting," says the man. "The fact that you spread hamster and get hollyhocks... I always thought that you got tulips from hamster jam." I thank you. The old ones are the best, Monkey

Me too, booked for all 3 in the £10 seats, took no time at all. Suspect everyone else was trying to get tickets for McKellen. Suspect these won't fly off the shelves at the first instance though, so I hope they have some grade A casting up their sleeves.

After successfully transferring Hamlet and Mary Stuart, they probably feel like they've got a little leeway to relax and put on shows that are less sure-fire for a season. (Slightly disappointing if that's also why there's such heavy female representation in writers and directors, but I suppose the reasoning doesn't matter as much as actually Doing The Thing.) I wonder if Albion's going to pop its head up again? It didn't blow me away, but I know a lot of others were extremely impressed by it.
