Today, I finally got round to seeing Shadowlands, the matinee, after dance. I had seen the movie and liked it (after all, it's set in Oxford and Hopkins and Winger were the cast, so what could possibly go wrong ;)). This production starred Charles Dance and Janie Dee, who I had heard on Woman's Hour. It was FANTASTIC!!! Not only is the play really good, deeply moving as well as clever and very witty, but the actors, also the supporting roles like Warnie, simply blew me away!! And Charles Dance is outstanding! It never gets cheesy, but the truth of the emotions and the tragic really touches you.
The play by William Nicholson is the true love story of C.S: Lewis (Narnia books), who was a lecturer at Magdalen College Oxford.
