[art-chatte]

я когда-то упоминала о серии книг про сестер Гримм, вполне нормальный кроссовер из 7 или 8 частей. я пока 3 прочитала... там интересно обыграно, кем могут быть сказочные персы в реальной жизни. ну да, сейчас это популярная тема исследований)) Красная Шапочка и Серый Волк довольно внезапны и отношения у них до сих пор не очень, хотя бы потому что Волк встал на сторону Гриммов. в последнее время с Волками в кино и литературе что-то не то, будто история приручения волков началась вновь... нда, а Шапочка подружилась с Бармаглотом...
но интереснее всего персонаж Прекрасного Принца. интересен он тем, что он - один. вы понимаете? это один Принц, который успел пережениться и развестись со всеми сказочными прицессами... ну, кроме Белль. да она и не принцесса... и у нее есть свое Чудовище. так и оставшееся Чудовищем)

с чего они вспомнились? не знаю. не суть.

под катом инфа о нескольких лондонских спектаклях.

"Мышеловка" - юбилей.
Jumpy at Duke of York's
A mother, a wife, and fifty, Hilary once protested at Greenham. Now her protests tend to focus on persuading her teenage daughter to go out fully clothed. A frank and funny family drama.
Tamsin Greig returns to the role for which she won universal critical acclaim. Her other recent theatre credits include The Little Dog Laughed, for which she was nominated for an Olivier Award.

Our Boys at Duchess Theatre
Based on the author's own army experience, Our Boys is both searingly honest and explosively funny. Five young soldiers are killing nothing but time as they recover from injuries incurred in the line of duty. Suddenly, their daily routine of TV, lonely hearts ads and banter is shattered by the arrival of a young officer. The camaraderie of this unlikely band of brothers is soon jeopardised by a dangerous incident and an act of betrayal. With charges of misconduct looming, accusations fly - and the fighting really starts.
Fired by anger at the neglect of our wounded heroes, Our Boys remains as relevant now as was in 1993, when it won a Best New Play award. This first West End production comes from the creative team behind international hit Journey's End.
The cast includes Matthew Lewis, who played Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter film series and was recently nominated for an acting award for his role in BBC One's The Syndicate. Laurence Fox is best known for his leading role as DS Hathaway in ITV drama Lewis. He was last seen in the West End in Treats (Garrick).Arthur Darvill plays Rory Williams in Doctor Who, with other TV credits including He Kills Coppers and The Verdict. His last London stage appearance was in Doctor Faustus (Globe).

Peter And Alice at Noel Coward Theatre
When Alice Liddell Hargreaves met Peter Llewelyn Davies at the opening of a Lewis Carroll exhibition in 1932, the original Alice in Wonderland came face to face with the original Peter Pan. In John Logan's remarkable new play, enchantment and reality collide as this brief encounter lays bare the lives of these two extraordinary characters.
Judi Dench plays Alice, and Ben Whishaw plays Peter in Logan's first new play since Red, which went on to win six Tony Awards in 2010.
