Lloyd Corrigan: Oscar-Winning Mayor in "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"
Lloyd Corrigan: Oscar-Winning Mayor in “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World”
For years I have taken good care to qualify my boast that I have ALMOST written about every cast member of It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963), because there’s always someone else. This morning I realized there was another, and he’s not an anonymous extra. The guy who plays the Mayor was Hollywood character actor, director and screenwriter Lloyd Corrigan (1900-1969). I’m sure I’ve always…

Review: Jack Absolute Flies Again, National Theatre
Review: Jack Absolute Flies Again, @nationaltheatre
Dance routines! Ukuleles! Banter about bunting! And so much more, I absolutely adored this.
Richard Bean and Oliver Chris’ reinvention of The Rivals in Jack Absolute Flies Again is a comic masterpiece at the National Theatre
“I do love a man in uniform”
Having had my funny-bone resolutely untickled by One Man, Two Guvnors, I was a little trepidatious to approach Richard Bean’s newest comedy for the National Theatre, co-written with Oliver Chris. But I needn’t have worried as their riff…

Sanc(tuary) Weekly
A weekly writing game for the Sanctuary fandom, where anyone is welcome to participate!
Outline:
At the start of each week duration, a participant will start a brand-new fic for the Sanctuary fandom!
From there, everyone who wants is free to reblog it with their own addition and so forth to make a story. Stories can continue being reblogged/written after their initial week, but a new fic will start the following week, with a new person starting as determined by the wheel spin.
Wheel spins will be performed by sarcasticsciencefictionwriter two days before the next start date. The chosen person will be alerted via private messaging or askbox.
Rules:
1.Be respectful. Don't complain where someone takes the story, critique their writing, etc.
2. No ship or character bashing. Ties in with the above rule. If someone brings in a ship or character you don't like, don't turn the story into how to destroy that ship/character in favor of another. Go earlier in the reblog chain and continue the story from there instead. (We want everyone, including non-Teslen shippers, to feel welcome and participate)
3. Keep it safe for work. Again, on the principal of everyone feeling welcome, NSFW content is not allowed. (If you do want to take it that way, keep it outside the chains and make a new post for yourself)
4. Do not reblog from yourself. Feel free to hop in multiple times on one story/chain, but don't turn the story into a one-person show. Let everyone have fun. [Edit: You may reblog from yourself after the initial week has passed for each story]
5. Use the Tag #sanc weekly writing Mostly for original posters/chain starters, so we can all find it easier, but it would be helpful if everyone did as well.
6. Have Fun!!!
(Tag list, Starter List, and Where to Direct Questions Under Cut)
Tag list: @tinknevertalks , @theleotorrio, @angsty-violet , @truedairship, @drewsaturday,
@dorothyoz39, @zeldamacgregor, @chartreuseian, @electricrogue, @ladyelysandra,
@misscrazyfangirl321,
@lanistas (I know you haven't had time to write, wanted to include you), @crazymcwritesalot (wanted to include you as well)
@silhouetteofafox, @starbuckxcarter, @romanaisalive, @galactic-pirates (not sure if you four are interested, but the more the merrier!)
Additional Info:

Chapter by Chapter> Star Trek: The Vulcan Academy Murders chapters 3 & 4
BW Media Spotlight's Chapter by Chapter breaks out two short chapters for this part of Star Trek: The Vulcan Academy Murders chapters 3 & 4
Chapter By Chapter (usually) features me reading one chapter of the selected book at a time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as a read-along book club.
Yes, two chapters this week…

Re-review: Jack Absolute Flies Again, National Theatre
I absolutely adore Jack Absolute Flies Again again at the National Theatre, this is one not to miss when it comes to NTLive in October
“I’m a dramatic device!”
I adored the National Theatre’s Jack Absolute Flies Again when I first saw it, to the point where I knew I would have to see it again as I was missing jokes from laughing so hard (particularly where Caroline Quentin’s Mrs Malaprop was…
