Are they planning on realising it on DVD or something? I'm .. intrigued... |
The trick to getting the perfect view: 1) Arrive an hour and ten minutes early. 2) Take the incredibly slow moving lift down to the toilets, thus avoiding the crush of getting down to ground level. (No-one else seemed to have thought of this.) 3) Saunter calmly out of the entrance to the toilets, and stand immediately behind all the people sitting down, centre right as you look at the stage. 4) Wait for a few of these people to give up because of the rain, thus leaving more gaps. 5) When told to clear the space behind the white line separating standers from sitters, calmly step forward two paces. 6) Shuffle forwards through the gaps in the sitters, until you join a little clump of standers. 7) Stand immediately behind a small man with a large rucksack. The overhang of the rucksack will keep your feet dry. 8] When all the sitters eventually stand up, marvel at the amount of space this creates around you. 9) Cheer when the rain stops and everybody puts their umbrellas down. 10) Sigh with relief as the violent drunken nutter ahead of you gets escorted away by his friends. Those people bunched up near the fountain ahead did look awfully squashed, though - poor you. |
I don't think I was by the fountain ahead of you, I think I was by a fountain well behind you, and then across to the right. Still, I got a good view of the screen, even if not of the stage. There was a stage wasn't there? Incidentally, BBC4 is showing the original non-PSB version of The Battleship Potemkin this Saturday at 10.40pm. |
