Also there is this site: www.thehuntforholly.comThere is a competition to vote for a cocktail to be called "The Holly Golightly" - and there are prizes of tickets to see the show.... The site contains a small bit of promotional video which includes Colin Ingram who is producing the play....  |

Watch Sky 1 Arts - Channel 256 tonight to see footage and interview with Anna on BAT !!  (Thanks to Lorna for the heads up !) Just an update on the show - it's called "Theatreland" and is a series on the Theatre Royal Haymarket ... (very fortunate that it's on !!) The show mainly centred on "Waiting For Godot" starring Sir Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart, but today introduced the production of BAT !! They featured measuring up the stage set for BAT while the WFG set was still in place, some cool interviews with Anna and some really good rehearsal footage of BAT - it was mainly the initial read through at a studio in South London but actually featured the first time they had read the lines aloud ! (Anna said she felt a bit nervous about doing it and didnt usually tend to carry out first read throughs on camera !! LOL !! It was good anyway !!) They also had footage from the BAT cocktail party which was held on 25 June. Unfortunately my HD recorder played up tonight so was unable to record it to put screengrabs up. It is however repeated on Sky Arts 1 on Friday at 4pm and on Sunday at 7.30pm. This was show 5 of 8 in the series so I expect 6,7 and 8 may feature additional footage - in fact I know Epsiode 8 will as Anna is on the cover (and inside) September's "Sky Magazine" and the article mentions BAT is featured in the last episode as the show follows the rehearsals. I'll add scans to the Gallery later tonight... I also understand the whole series is to be released on DVD in October - see here: www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/11540415/Theatreland/Product.html |

Episode 6 of Theatreland was shown tonight.
Although the whole show was about the final performance of Waiting For Godot, it still was a great episode.... the emotion of Sir Ian McKellen after the final performance when he broke down in tears thinking it would be his last ever stage performance was overwhelming..... wish I had been to see the show now !!
There was a fleeting glimpse of Anna in rehearsals for BAT at the very end of this week's episode when they were advertising Episode 7... so next weeks episode and the final episode will be totally about BAT... ;D ;D ;D

Hey, im new to the forum so I'll probably sound stupid at some part in this but im just trying to find out if there's a chance Anna won't be playing when I see the show I'm booking tickets for the 9th of october&soo desperate to meet her. I know this is completley random but I'm just wandering if anyone knows if Anna will be playing Holly then, or if there's any way to fin out thanks allie |

It is very unlikely that Anna will not be there though.... Hope you do get to meet her.... you'll have to be at the Stage door quite early to catch her before she goes in for make-up/costume etc - you may stand a better chance later on after the show ends... mention the website and you'll get a smile and hello from her |
