They're doing the Marlowe in NYC right now, and there's a picture . I don't care what they say; we're going.

AUGH! YES!

Edward II! Thank you for reminding me about this!

I would go to that.

If you love Marlowe, you should come down to Washington, DC! The Shakespeare Theatre company is doing both Edward II and Tamburlaine, very lavishly. I'd suggest the well-reviewed Edward (closing 1/6) rather than the Avery Brooks' massive Tamburlaine (heavy on epic gore).

Were I there, I would too. It's a good play, possibly Marlowe's best.

The concept of this production sounds a lot like that of one in (wouldn't you know it) San Francisco a few years ago, which I did see and which was well worth the seeing, even without any extracurricular interest.

I really enjoyed this production. Full frontal nudity aside (*grin*) it was lewd, charismatic, magnetic and basically awesome. One of the most fun theater experiences I've had in some time.

Oooo, Edward II! The Derek Jarman version is one of my favourite movies ever...
