Britney Spears offered West End Stage role in 'A Streetcar Named Desire'
2008-04-07 12:21:00 Britney Spears has been offered the chance to play Blanche DuBois in an upcoming London stage play of Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire.The Toxic singer, who earlier this week helped CBS sitcom ’How I Met Your Mother’ achieve its highest ever rating, would be following in the footsteps of actress Vivien Leigh if she decided to play the role of tragic alcoholic Blanche DuBois."Britney’s been on the list for some time but was considered too risky. Her appearance in How I Met Your Mother changed all that. She had poise, timing and flair," The Daily Express quoted an insider, as saying,"We wanted her for Blanche because while she’s technically too young, who else could embody this fallen Southern belle so well? "Britney’s done it all, from being desired beyond all others to facing ridicule that she can’t quite understand - pure Blanche."She’s living out the story, so to harness that on stage would be ama...

West End Historic Area and Westend Market in Greenville
2008-03-07 00:49:00 The West End Historic Area and Westend Market is located at the South end of Main Street at Augusta Street in Greenville, just across the Reedy River from downtown. It has a long and interesting history. After earlier settlements in the 1830's the Furman University was established in 1852 on fifty acres of land in the West End, where it expanded and remained until 1958. This development and the arrival of the Greenville & Columbia Railroad in the West End in 1853 led to both residential and commercial development of the area. In the 1890's this area was called Greenville's second downtown. This district was full of life and was a place where the people of the city could get their daily necessities. Cotton and fertilizer warehouses sprang up as well as other commercial activities that supported the farmers from throughout the region. In 1893 the Chicora College, a Presbyterian school for women, was established on "McBee's Terrace" overlooking t...

(But) Al Pacino loved the script," he added. Sellers, who died of heart attack in 1980, is one of Britain’s most famous comedy icons. (ANI)

London (west-end) tickets
2007-10-15 15:50:00 You may have all heard about the half-price ticket booth in Leicester square, London, where one can get the hottest theatre and musical tickets. While this is a great way of acquiring tickets, the show list they have tickets to on a daily basis is limited, and you do have to line up for some time, especially if the tickets you want are the same as what everybody else wants.Two tips: One, locate the theatre of the show you want to go to, and get to the box office about a few hours before the show. The attendant may tell you to come back an hour or 45 minutes before the show, but at least you can talk to him/her and gauge if there are likely to be any returns of the day (tickets from people that can't make the show after all). This method works best on a weekday.Two, if you have access to a computer, or an internet cafe nearby, log on to lastminute.com and find tickets for as low as ten pounds.Good luck.Of a list of plays and musicals in London, see the Official Guide.

Sneak Peek at Yuri Monogatari 5 - "West End"
2007-08-24 20:46:00 Thank you to everyone who commented - quite intelligently - on yesterday's post. The incoherent rants are almost never in reaction to posts like that, they tend to be very series-focused. I don't think I have to explain why. :-)Since I ended yesterday's "discussion" (by which I mean, "genteel rant") with an admission that what I look for in Yuri is stories of lesbian experience, it seemed logical to me to jump in to today's review with examples thereof.As I also mentioned in a comment to one of the comments, the desire I had to read Yuri that reflected lesbian life and love was one of the motivating factors in creating ALC Publishing. And it continues to be one of the reasons that we focus on doujinshi artists who are out there creating really excellent lesbian narratives that are not likely to be found in mainstream manga.When I started this year's Yuri Monogatari Project, I thought, initially, that I might do the book with a "West and East" approach - have the English langua...

Osbournes Leg it to Hospital, Hoof it to West End
2007-07-30 19:01:00 It was lights out, briefly, for the Prince of Darkness over the weekend. Ozzy Osbourne unexpectedly went under the knife Saturday in Denver for what his management company called a "minor outpatient procedure." "He is doing well," his reps said in a statement. Shortly after wrapping his Ozzfest set at the Coors Amphitheatre in Englewood, Colorado, the 58-year-old was rushed to Denver's Rose Medical Center. While his reps kept mum on what prompted Osbourne's emergency check-in, local news channel KUSA-TV reported that the rocker had complained of leg pains during the show and was subsequently treated for a blood clot. He was given a clean bill of health and released early Sunday. The Black Sabbath frontman is already back on the road in Kansas City, Missouri, where he's set to headline Ozzfest later Monday. It wasn't all bad news for the Osbourne clan this weekend, however, as word also broke that youngest offspring Kelly will make her West End debut in the musical Chicago. The 2...

The Center of the West End
2007-06-01 03:14:00 The West End is the center of cultural, artistic and social London and the center of the West End is the expansive Trafalgar Square. Built over 170 years ago, the square is not only one of the places to meet in London before a night of theatre, dining or dancing, it is also a favorite venue for large-scale meetings and rallies. The centerpiece of the square is a memorial to Admiral Lord Nelson, appropriately called ?Nelson?s Column.? The column and two impressive fountains sit on the north side of the square above where several key thoroughfares in London converge. The column, with the National Gallery behind it, makes for a lovely early morning or sunset hour photo. Other than the column and the fountains, which attract enough tourists in their own right, Trafalgar Square does have a handful of other sites to take in. There is the façade of the aforementioned National Gallery on the north side along with the adjacent National Portrait Gallery (for those who simply love their histor...
