The play's the thing


There was a play on TV yesterday. It was The Dresser on BBC2, and instead of being a play by Shakespeare, it was a play about a play by Shakespeare. It starred Ian McKellen and Anthony Hopkins, who at one point blacked up in an obvious reference to the BBC's 1981 version of Othello, in which he blacked up to play Othello.

I don't think I got all the references, but I know I got some so I am a clever cat!
