Betrayal: Charlie Cox, Zawe Ashton and Tom Hiddleston to Appear on Live from Here

[@trishaurvan9439]

God I adore Hiddleston...that man could recite the phone book on a street corner in rural Idaho and I'd pay the price of admission

[@Galemor1]

No you wouldn't. If he wasn't a celebrity, you would just walk right past him and not even make eye contact. Just like every other person you see sitting around, and in some way, asking for money..

[@emmali3796]

I went to the show for Tom, ending up loving all the actors!

[@arm_613]

I saw it on Broadway. Wonderful production! Great acting. Very cool set. They had various curtains that changed the depth of the stage and the central part of the stage revolved. They used physical distance and spacial relationships to represent emotional relationships. Very, very cool!

[@marisa6210]

I love these three!! On stage they are INCREDIBLE. Meeting them live Charlie is the sweetest.

[@nothingbutintroverted4372]

they all seem like such lovely individuals so jealous you got to meet them

[@Natta44]

Wow I didn't want it to end. I really wish I could have seen this! It looks amazing. I salute them for memorising all those lines effortlessly.

[@UnoNumberOne]

Saw the London production. Wonderful performances.

[@Galemor1]

Same here, really wish I could see it on Broadway too. Listening to this, I think it has evolved. It would be great to see firsthand how much it has changed.

[@UnoNumberOne]

@@Galemor1 My thoughts exactly. They've said how they're always discovering new things and always evolving so it would be interesting to see where they're at now. I wish they could find a way round the rights issue and film this.

[@ashtonvickers928]

Same I saw it on it’s second night in London I’d love to see it again

[@meitalpo]

a brilliant play that sadly got to see only twice in London, at the beginning of the run and at the end, it changed a bit but it was interesting to watch, I bet the Broadway version was a little different too, this part proves it, much more comic in timing and presentation. Met Charlie Cox he signed my playbill, saw Tom at the end of the street couldn’t reach him cause of the crowd. Tom is so good in this, theatre is his natural place.

[@meitalpo]

Eleanor Turner you’re right I was greedy 🥺

[@clairep8225]

I could say exactly the same! I saw it twice in London too. Met Charlie and zawe and they signed our programme but wasn’t able to meet Tom. Queued for ages but he left before we got to the front! Oh well.

[@jacquelinem2480]

I enjoyed this play. I saw it a couple of Saturday’s ago in New York. Good job to all the cast! 😊

[@rolling.juniper6818]

Absolutely fantastic actors and even more awesome as people. These people are actually awesome to talk to.

I hope they filmed the play and it will be released someday, so many people like me who live to far away to see it.

Amazing Specially my darling tom

[@CarolynsReadingRamblings]

So happy that I got to see this last minute this past weekend, it is literally the most amazing live performance I have ever seen! The acting was phenomenal (as expected) and the staging was brilliant! 😀❤️🎭👏

[@mobycat33]

Carolyn's Reading Ramblings agreed! I saw it in 2013 when the stage setup was much more elaborate, the actors were Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz, and it left me cold. I enjoyed this iteration so much more compelling.

[@CarolynsReadingRamblings]

@@mobycat33 oh wow! Yes I did love this stage set up with pretty much no set and very few props. That's interesting that this version appealed to you more, did the Daniel Craig/Rachel Weisz one have the dark comedy elements the way this did? I am envious that you got to see both because when I heard that Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz did the 2013 one, I was sad that I didn't know about it to try to see it not only because I think they're both fantastic actors but also I'd love to see how a real life husband and wife acting duo play this married couple on stage. Thanks for the reply! Happy Holidays 😀❤️🎭

[@mobycat33]

@@CarolynsReadingRamblings To be perfectly honest, I dozed off a couple of times during the 2013 show! I do remember some of the dark comedy. I was also in the mezzanine, and while the seats were decent, the set was basically a diorama that was much, much smaller than the massive stage it sat on (about half the size - imagine the set in a box on top of a larger table), so it was odd to see the actors walk across a blank part of the stage to get to the set. Being in the mezz also meant I couldn't really see the actors' faces. I was in the 3rd row for this iteration, and seeing their expressions (I could see the tears on their faces) helped to make me more invested in the characters and the story than the 2013 version.

[@halalgordonramsay4983]

no but the fact that i was coming from a huge daredevil show fan who just very recently came to appreciate loki’s character more than ever, because of both man’s acting, is bizzzzzare dawg.

The House Manager assured me that it was sent back to him. #tomhiddleston

[@positivelypetpartners]

Saw the play today, 11/16, play was awesome, husband and I really enjoyed it. Alot to think about, the dialog goes fast, so you really have to pay attention. One disappointment, no autograph signing after the matinee, so didn't get to do that. Sent a gift backstage to Tom with the house manager, hope he got it. One funny thing, my name is Judith, so I loved hearing Tom say my name. I have to make that my ring tone! #tomhiddleston

[@caroly1993]

Let me ask you something, because you saw the play. Does it have the same rythm on stage? And do they perform it with this dose of comedy? Thanks for reading me.

[@positivelypetpartners]

@@caroly1993 Some lines are played for comedy, the scene that they do here is kind of rushed, and pulled from the middle of the play, so the tempo is different than when its played altogether. The play is done in an hour and half, no intermission. The pauses are silences are longer in the actual play.

Wow, that is.....not how I would play that scene. (but who asked me, right? they're the professionals...) Does anybody know if they do the entire play that comedically? Or did they just do that for this one little sample?

[@positivelypetpartners]

I saw the play yesterday.. some of the lines got laughs, as they should, others were done seriously. The scene when done within the play has more pauses and silences, and was not as rushed as done here. I saw the play at the matinee, right before this broadcast was done, actually.

[@horacepthompkin]

@@positivelypetpartners Ok, that sounds better. No, I actually have never read the play--just seen the movie with Ben Kingsley and Jeremy Irons. I got the impression it was a line-for-line a replica of the play (or nearly so). Have you seen the movie? Did Pinter make any significant changes between the play and the movie screenplay?
