Someone has been watching a lot of Shakespeare's plays, and has drawn up their own
director's code of conduct including:
"
5. I will not make actors in battle scenes wear knitted chainmail of a color that makes them resemble not so much a medieval warrior as Winnie-the-Pooh."
I think we've seen some of the same productions.

Bought some theatre tickets online this evening. Loved the rubric the theatre added at the foot of the purchase page :
By submitting your purchase information you agree to the following: Tickets.com Limited is part of a US company and your data will pass through servers in the US. In the UK our address is: Tickets.com Limited, 405 Midsummer Boulevard, Milton Keynes MK9 3BN. We have to supply your details to The UCL Bloomsbury, from which you are purchasing these tickets, in order to complete this transaction. The UCL Bloomsbury will only share your details with their promoters, venues, visiting companies or artists in order for them to contact you with further information.
Well that's real generous of them, isn't it?(haven't these people heard that since 2003 it's been a legal requirement to provide opt ins ?)

orientation."
[Note to my friends - read and inwardly digest.]
