Exactly! I have a feeling he is really enjoying this time in Manc, just being as normal as he can be. Bless :)

Text from Jean (JH). She popped in this afternoon and flowers were coming in all the time for Will. Security said they have never seen anything like it!

 

 

 

:wub: I would love to know who they are all from :P

 

 

Thanks for posting ....I am stilll avoiding all the spoiler threads.....Its killing me ^_^

No problem Chrysalis :)

 

I'm still basking in a warm glow from all the fabulous reports from last night, well it's either that or I've overdosed on the Lemsips :o ;)

 

I've said this a lot lately, but ain't it great being a Will fan :D

 

Spoke to a fan up in Manc this morning and she was telling me that Will was in the local florist on Saturday and the lady in the shop says he is just lovely. He spent 20 minutes in the shop reading her paper and eating her pickled onion crisps :lol:

 

 

Thanks Lainey.

 

Love it :lol: - economical Will. :lol: You know what they say - look after the pennies........... :lol:

Thanks BYM&Ms - :wub:

Thanks BYM&M's

 

Love that his acting skills are being recognised even though this career is still in it's infancy. :wub:

Not seen that one before - so thanks for bringing it over BYm+m's.

I haven't stopped thinking or talking about this all day..and last night..long into the night..it's like nothing you could expect. i thought he would be good you know..i was nervous for him..but i thought he could do it...but he really was fantastic :wub:

Nicky is amusing and petulant and spiteful and self centered and jealous. and the bit with his mother at the end...the anger. the unexpected violence..the need..

he took my breath away..i am so impressed..i have never felt anything like it...it's not like anything he's given us before, it's totally different .but in the most amazing way.

He's an actor of the first order..no messing. :cry: :wub: :dance:

 

the staff were amazing...and they said that he had to have another table in his room just to hold all his gifts and flowers :wub:

Thanks SWF. It's lovely to have our own first night reporter.

 

Sounds as if Will really owns the part. From what I've read it's difficult to believe Will is such a novice in the field of acting.

Thanks for that :cry: :heart:

 

Bless him with his gifts :wub:

Florence was so self centered..she couldn't see he needed her..she held him at one point but he fought free..he was angry..furious with her..he swept his arm across the dressing table and smashed the things on it to the floor..then he looked at her...his shirt untucked and hanging..his feet bare..his eyes dark and haunting...he had her attention.

and he had ours..every single person in that dark little space was hooked on that moment. on him.. there was the gasp at the violence..and then there was the silence..long and intense.. i will never forget it. :cry:

Oh lord :cry: :cry:

Thanks for your reviews SWF. :cheer: Wish I could get there, but it's impossible at the moment.

 

I've read on D that some people couldn't make it last night because of the bad weather. Hope they can change their tickets, trouble is the expense of getting there again if they've travelled from afar.

Thanks to AJ on D :cheer:

Pop star Will Young turns actor in Noel Cowar's play The Vortex at Manchester's Royal Exchange Theatre.

 

Tickets have been selling lilke hot cakes for weeks and the advice to anyone in search of a good seat is advised to book now.

 

Young plays troubled musician Nicky Lancaster; a part originally played by Coward himself, who returns from Paris at the height of the post-war party in England.

 

The Vortex created a notorious sensation when premiered in 1924 with its brave depiction of the darkness behind the dazzle of the 'bright young things' who danced and partied their days away.

 

The excellent cast also includes Diana Hardcastle who has previously worked at the Royal Exchange in A Woman of No Importance and The Duchess of Malfi. Jo Coombes is the director and the design is by Lez Brotherston.

 

The Vortex runs until March 10 with half-price previews for the first three nights.

 

* For tickets, priced £8 to £27.50, phone the box office on 0161 615 6815.
