Not that I've been wishing the year away but October is a milestone month for theatre excitement and the start of fabulous run up to the festive season. In my book anyway.

October is RII DT (as I believe it is vogue to call it) in Stratford and then London in December. October is also sexy spy number one (Matthew Macfadyen) and Stephen Mangan in Jeeves and Wooster. And October is also Mojo month. Yes, a second stage outing in the same year for Mr Whishaw and Colin Morgan which I'm stupidly excited about for reasons already expressed here.

But if all that wasn't enough then in November we have Let The Right One In at the Royal Court which is about the only thing in the season there that I'm really excited to see and in December Coriolanus at the Donmar (rehearsal pics with Tom Hiddleston looking handy with a sword just released).

I may have just exploded by the time Chrimble comes around although I'm hoping to have recovered in time for New Year's Eve which I plan to spend in the Atlantic Club ;0)
