I hope when the play is over I can get a razor back and make a fun shaving video.

One thing I learned that was really interesting was that they will be using sugarless coolwhip for shaving cream on stage, who would have thought it.

Not that long ago, I worked a production of "Julius Caesar" by the RSC. One thing that I've learned to be an eternal truth is that whenever someone cries "Tyranny is dead!", somebody else is going to have to clean up the blood. And it's usually a stagehand.

It would be interesting to find out what they intend to use in the blood bag. I hope it something quite soluble as it can make quite a mess.
