To witness either a London theatre production, a Chekhov play, or thespian Kenneth Branagh performance is truly a privelage and scare opportunity. To do it all in one night is pure stroke of luck on my part. And to do it for £10, well now, that's just the way I roll.

Hard to be unsatisfied with either the play itself or actors. For this production, and this actor, one overwhelming sentiment that they can both nail is misery. Hell, in the end he kills himself and curtain falls. Ever seen that one?

Thanks to my fellow Filipino Californian for accompanying me to the my local casio of £10 3 course meal, then to chinatown to buy boba balls after the play. You gotta love London.......
