It seems there were a great many people from LJ land at the performance on August the 4th. It was a brlliant performance and the Dirty Duck has a fab ambience as well (you may have noticed a lost looking girl sitting on the pavement by the courtyard theatre with her back half empty as she tried to locate her phone to ring a taxi. That would have been me, who'd forgotten to book a taxi and had her ass grab by 3 chavs on the walk up to the theatre, even though I was wearing a tunic top,black leggings and ankle boots).
What you did for the actors was absolutely lovely and I applaud you for it. I felt too guilty to go and stand in that crush of people and am rather glad that I didn't now.
About the Tate play-according to people who were there on the night David didn't leave early and there was no interval. The whole thing was whipped up by the press. He was, however, stalked by two paparazzi as soon as he left the back door. This was all witnessed by two girls who had gone to see Catherine and her male co-star from the IT Crowd after the show. No surprise about the tabloids making a fuss out of nothing, though I think you're right about Tennant. The poor bugger isn't going to want to go back to DW after this and I wouldn't blame him. I was sitting in the Dirty Duck the next day, revising for a law exam and waiting for the rain to stop when I saw him walk past with a hat pulled well down over his head for disguise.
