Review: Mike Bartlett's 55 minutes of nastiness in the brilliant Bull, Young Vic

Yep it's Stan's Shameless Theatre Phwoar list for 2014

Normally I pick one hottie for the StOliviers but there were too many to choose from and who doesn't love a bit of picture researching? I know at least two people who've been waiting for this list, I hope you enjoy.

In no particular order and photo credits listed when available:

Mark-strong-326x326
Mark Strong, A View From The Bridge, Young Vic - you'll have to imagine the opening shower scene if you didn't see it

 

JS34112464
Alex Hassell, Henry IV, RST Stratford and Barbican London - as a billy bonus got to see him in jeans and a white vest during the fight call while I was on the Barbican backstage tour.



PART1-1-541X361
Sam Marks, Henry IV (as before) - you'll have to trust me on this one if you didn't see the plays; there was the 'locker room' scene in part 2 but Sam is also Alex's understudy...and I saw the understudy performance of part 1 from which the picture of Alex is taken...get the idea?

 

Screen-shot-2014-07-02-at-3-32-22-am
Richard Armitage, The Crucible, Old Vic - all strong and angry and trying to do the right thing



And finally there were the Boys in Briefs in a whole category of their own...just watch the video.

Late additions: Ben Foster in Streetcar Named Desire and Tom Bateman in Shakespeare in Love.
