Yay!

Awesome!

Great stuff! I never got to see him perform that in person.

Cool, I had hoped they filmed one of the performances but this sounds great, too. Will Patrick Stewart be in it, too? Hopefully, this is true.

Patrick was on TV the other day, talking about how he's enjoyed his stage work over the last 4 or 5 years. He mentioned his stint in "David Tennant's Hamlet." One of the joys of theatre for me is that it's short lived. Still, I would like to see the production again.

Hmm, guess the RSC have realised they can make yet more money out of the Who community then

 

[Captain Dago]

Woo Hoo! Sign me up for a copy! It'll go right next to Branagh's on my shelf.

Well, they were always planning to record the stage production - that's fairly standard practice for 'big interest' productions like this (the recording of the Ian McKellan/Sylvestor McCoy King Lear was broadcast on British TV last Christmas). But the plan was to record one of the London performances, and then most of those had a distinct absence of David Tennant...
