Bell Shakespeare’s 20th anniversary production of King Lear (in conjunction with the Queensland Theatre Company) was at QPAC in May 2010. I really enjoyed myself and looking forward to watch more of the bard’s works. I even downloaded those Shakespeare iPhone apps so that I can read the plays – that Goneril line was one of my fave.

Heaps to think about social media, events, etc. I’m used to live tweeting during professional development events where it is content and information rich but other types of events like plays, concerts, etc are different in that it is all about one’s emotions and experiences of it. My first observation was Riverfire.
Hmm.
