Best. Production. Ever.

madbakerI am exhausted today, because we didn't get home last night until eleven. It was totally worth it, though.
We went to an art-house theater to watch a (2012?) production of Twelfth Night performed at the Globe. All-male production. With Stephen Fry as Malvolio.
This was by far the funniest production of the play I've ever seen. Even the moving bits were funny. Having Elizabethan makeup on guys playing the female parts wasn't as distracting as I thought it might be. Stephen Fry wasn't playing Fry onstage - which was good: he played the character and he wasn't the star. I'm not sure he added anything but I have no complaints.
We've already ordered the DVD.
