EDS performing Terry Pratchett’s Wyrd Sisters
Like last semester the English Dramatic Society is performing a quite interesting play. Anyone interested to join me visiting one of the shows?
Dear friends of the EDS,
The World Cup has kept Germany in football fever for the last four weeks and now that it's all over some of you might well be asking yourselves just how you are going to fill those empty evenings. Well, at least for one evening we can offer you an evening of theatrical and musical entertainment with the next EDS production, the stage adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters.
Many of you (and we are sure there will be a few Pratchett fans out there) will have read the book and know the (original) story from the Discworld series - a spinoff of Macbeth - the tale of witch Granny Weatherwax and her fellow coven members who must save the kingdom from the evil Duke. With just a few changes here and there (to make it funnier?) and added musical interludes Wyrd Sisters offers somethings for everyone.
The performance dates are Tuesday - Saturday, 25th - 29th July, at 19.00 each evening, with tickets (EUR 8 and EUR 6) available now to reserve online (on our newly launched website - http://www.english-dramatic-society.de) and to buy from Wednesday (12th July) from our usual points of sale. Please see the website for more details.
We very much look forward to welcoming you to one (or more) of our performances later this month and thank you as ever for your continued support.
Yours,
The English Dramatic Society, Erlangen

Gestern abend war ich mit den beiden hier in Erlangen, um mir ein Theaterstück anzusehen: wyrd systers (MacBest) von Terry Pratchett. Auf englisch, jawohl. Und - hoho! haltet Euch fest - ich hab sogar was verstanden, und das nicht nur, weil ich mir das Buch vorher (jedenfalls bis zur Hälfte) noch mal durchgelesen habe). Sehr fein jedenfalls, insbesondere die (Schauspiel-)Künste des Narrs und Nanny Oggs haben mich beeindruckt.

[...]Mittwoch: Mein erstes "Blog-Date" (d.h. Verabredung ohne Hilfsmittel wie Telefon, SMS, E-Mail oder mündliche Absprachen) führte in die Scheibenwelt nach Erlangen zur "English Dramatic Society" die Terry Pratchetts "Wyrd Sisters" (deutscher Titel: "MacBest") wirklich liebevoll spielten. Die Bilder gibts bei Jay (wo sonst), weitere Impressionen bei Bee. Neben der größten Pizza Mittelfrankens ist mir v.a. ein Zitat (sinngemäß, nicht wörtlich) in Erinnerung geblieben: "Natürlich sind Soldaten alle verschieden, sonst bräuchten sie ja keine Uniformen".[...]

Although already a few days have past I want to use the chance for some explanations about my current header picture. Most of you (unless you are only following my blog via RSS) should have noticed it. It shows the four witches Granny, Nanny, Magrat and E
