Just came home from the show. I kept on crying at the end. I couldn't stop, it was just so emotional. Not just because of VictorBatch talking about love and seeing him devastated but also the fact that it was the last time I saw it. I managed to see it 3 times, i am way too lucky and i am right now the happiest person on Earth. Not joking. I have so many things in my head I don't even know where to start... :) The final bow was really emotional, Ben and Jonny winked at each other, they were hugging for long seconds, it was so lovely. :) the audience was crazy for them, they deserved it soooooooo much!!! I actually started to cry even more when they were saying goodbye. At the stage door Benedict was so friendly and kind(as usual) and he really took his time to sign and talk. We were celebrating with big applause anytime an actor walked out the door. :) It was just such a great feeling for both the actors and us. I had my total fangirl moment when i gave a gift to Ben and he was completely focusing on me, looking in the eyes and honestly thanking me. He was concentrating for a minute only on me and i am over the moon. I feel complete. :) those eyes.... *ahh drools*
Even Nick Dear turned up, i got his signature, he was lovely and he loved to chat with whoever approached him. :) When i told him that i absolutely love the show and saw it 3 times he was like: "3x £45, wow , you go girl!" :)
oh, and Ben should totally wear the Victor costume like all the times because he looks so dashing, hot and sexy. seriously! :)

I honestly can't believe it's all over! I think I'm still in a state of shock and it hasn't really sunk in yet. I don't know what I'm going to do when it does, this has been such a huge part of my life for the last three months!
Today, however emotional, has been truly fantastic. Me and few friends started off the day with the first backstage tour of the National Theatre and with it being a bank holiday and so early we had the most access possible to the NT which was amazing beyond words! We saw all the backstage areas of the Olivier, which includes some very bizarre graffiti in the quick-change area, had a few stage illusions shattered ;) It was fabulous to be able to see how it works and to discover some things are incredibly simple and some others are so complicated and how it all fits together to make the production work. It was also just beyond words to be able to stand in the middle of the Olivier stage!!!
The final performance was beyond words. I have to say, as much as I adore Benedict, Jonny stole the show. He was beyond words, the emotion he portrayed was so real and heart wrenching and he cried more than once, which I've not seen him do. If anything, I think final night tensions were in play as there were more flubbed lines and cues that I've seen before, but it was still the best performance I've seen and I'm so glad to have been there.
We went to the stage door, which was a bit mad but nowhere near what I was expecting after some nights! The cast party in the backstage bar was in fill swing and from down below you could hear the resounding applause and cheering as Benedict arrived. From our spot waiting, trying to huddle against the wind tunnel that was being created, we could occasionally see the cast leaning over to look at us all - Benedict did poke his head over, then promptly ran away and hid from view (sadly there were some rude people trying to take his photo while he was talking with the other cast members) - but you could occasionally see him posing for group photos with the other actors.
As some other people have said, when he did come out it was to massive amounts of applause and cheers, which Jonny also received (which makes me happy beyond words!). I managed to embarrass myself totally, with a little help for the forces of nature but he took my making an unintentional tit of myself in his stride and was still lovely and gracious. Later, Jonny came out and was very much the same, he's such a wonderful man!
I managed to catch a few other members of the cast, including Anreea who plays the female creature, who is lovely, beautiful and often overlooked as she has a non-speaking role. I told her I thought she was so brave (she said it was very, very scary!), and also very talented (I doubt you can see from anything other than the first few rows, but she cries beautifully and silently in every production). Lizzie (aka Agatha) was also wonderful, and wearing a fabulous dress of her mothers! She even called out the actress onto the balcony who played Ophelia in Hamlet, as I spotted her and couldn't help but blurt out how amazing she is as well. So, Lizzie hollered up and when she was hanging over the balcony in confusion on pointed at me and said she had a fan, so we shared some long distance love!
Benedict didn't stay long at the cast party, I was in the NT car collecting some bits from a friends car at probably 5.30ish and saw him arrive from upstairs laden down with gift bags and flowers, which he loaded into his car. By 6pm when I went back down to collect my stuff from the car, his was gone. So, no mad partying for him! The very knowledgeable lady who gave us the tour said that both Benedict and Jonny are starting new projects tomorrow, which is why the final show was a matinee, any other circumstances it would have been an evening performance.
OH. And, I was also told on the tour that "Frankenstein" is being put into storage for the NT, which means it may be revived in the future. HOWEVER, if it was revived it would not mean the same cast and it also no where near a dead cert, it doesn't happen often and if it does it's a very, very long wait. But, they clearly know it's a powerful part of their catalogue! 

关于演出中一些mishaps的消息可以看这个主题下的这个post以及其回复
"Did any mishaps happen when you/your friend saw the show?
When I saw CreatureBatch he split his trousers in the last scene, the entire inseam of his right leg was ripped from knee to crotch."
谈到了Ben的裤子线开了
Ben的脚趾甲脱了,
("when I saw him he ripped off the nail of his pinky toe in the beginning when he was kicking at the chord. I was in phantom pain the entire performance and it didn't stop bleeding until the last few scenes :/")
Elizabeth的衣服卡住了
（When I saw it on Monday 26, Elizabeth runs through the door at one point to Victor (I think), and her dress caught on the handle of the door *g* She had to bounce back and untangle it, but it was really quick and didn't disturb anything. Live theater for you *g*）
Jonny的衣服卡住了
（oh, yeah...Jonny got stuck in the door with his coat when he was rushing out and closing it...had to tuck two times to free himself XD）
演William的小孩没坐稳
(The second time I saw it with CreatureBatch I actually cringed when he picked up William because I was convinced he was going to drop him (and judging by the poor boys face he was convinced he was about to BE dropped) it looks like Benedict threw him over his shoulders with too much force and the boy couldn't sit on his shoulders properly. I was so scared for the poor lad, but thankfully nothing went wrong.)


依然是几个关于Ben的mishaps
开场时Ben没来得及从鼓里爬出来
"Last Saturday evening Benedict had real trouble getting out of the birth pod. By that first loud music cue he only barely managed to poke his head out and had to really struggle to escape the d*mn thing! It certainly wasn't planned this way."
同一post里，Ben没来得及穿上长袍，(as he is still naked at that time, the audience had some unexpected enjoyable time then )
"There were other minor butterfingery things like he never managed to properly put on the red robe and at some point somebody stepped on one of those cracker thingies leftover from the scene where the train riders shout at the creature and taunt him. This was in a really quiet scene so that popping sound was a bit distracting..."
周六下午场和晚场也没穿好
（He didn't get the cloak on properly at the Saturday matinee either. The extra flashes of Cumberbum we got as a result were more than welcome ;)
As he did it again in the evening I would have to conclude that the fox was teasing us..）
3月2号那场也没穿好
（ohh, yeah, that happened back on March 2nd as well. a good time was had by all）

Ben意外在演出中点燃了草堆，光着脚去踩，脚在演出中受伤了
（It's possibly me someone heard talking about this in the Cabin Pressure line, or my friend as we saw it. It was a Saturday evening performance in April and Benedict was the creature. He'd just 'set fire' to the De Lacey house and had moved around to where the grass is and was waving the flaming torch around.
And actually set fire to the grass. It happened very quickly, but from the second row you could see the thought process going through his head. Pretty much along the lines of - oh shit, that's a fire, I need to put that out, oh shit I have bare feet - then he stomped it out, which clearly hurt but was back in character almost instantly after the sharp flash of ow and every since they've been much more careful with how they wave the flaming torch. )


翻译：
刚看完弗兰肯斯坦回来。结束的时候我一直在哭。我无法自控，太激动了。不仅仅是因为看到BC扮演的博士谈论对怪物的感情，也不仅仅是因为我看到博士痛苦的样子，而且还因为这是弗兰肯斯坦的最后一场。我已经看了三遍，我非常幸运，我现在是世界上最幸福的人了。我不是开玩笑。我的脑袋里很乱，不知从何说起…最后的谢幕很激动人心，BC和米勒凝视着对方，他们拥抱了很长时间，好可爱！观众们为他俩疯狂，这是他们应得的！当演员们向观众道别的时候，我哭得更加厉害了。在后台入口出，BC对粉丝们很友好（一如既往），给我们签名，和我们说话。当他从后台出来的时候，粉丝们欢声雷动。我相信不只是我们，BC也一样激动。当我把给BC的礼物送给他的时候，我觉得自己就是一个迷恋偶像的小粉丝，那时他的眼睛看着我的眼睛，真诚地向我道谢。他为我停留了一会儿，我仿佛身在云端。我的人森啊，圆满了！他的眼睛好迷人！口水！
Nick Dear也现身了，给我签了名，他好可爱，剧迷们一靠近他，他就开始和他们聊天。我告诉他我喜欢弗兰肯斯坦，看了三遍，他的反应是：“3个45胖子啊，丫头！”
BC要是一直穿着博士服就好了，因为看起来好米粒，好性感！真的！


下面是两条消息
1.rumor-Frankenstein的DVD好像又有可能发
from tumblr completelycumberbatched
( I just had a tweet from a friend saying that another friend of hers recently emailed the NT about a Frankenstein DVD and she’s just had a reply saying that there are some hurdles to overcome first but…I quote…”before too long”.
“BEFORE TOO LONG”.
“BEFORE TOO LONG”.
If this is a misunderstanding and it’s not true, then I apologise from the bottom of my heart for getting everyone’s hopes up…but I couldn’t not post. I am sitting here shaking with excitement and repeatedly opening and closing my mouth like a fish because I’m unable to speak and I can’t cope with this nervous, desperate excitement on my own.)
2.依旧是LJ上Frankenstein的主题，一条post谈到Ben今天开始做新活了（no time to recover? poor Benny)
作者猜可能是Sherlock的read-through,或者是Rattigan的拍摄
(I was told today by a very knowledgeable lady at the National who was running the morning backstage tour that the reason Frankenstein was finishing on a matinee today was because both Benedict and Jonny are starting new projects tomorrow, no days off anything. It could be Sherlock read-through, but I hear Martin's not back in the UK, or my other thought was the Rattigan documentary he's supposed to be doing.)


吧里强人快上啊，第一个我翻译完了，下面就靠乃们了，哈

谢谢天天，好快啊

天天蛋定路过，但V大说过，没有蛋怎么定

我回来了。。我估计会语无伦次吧。。因为我还没睡呢。。但是过会儿我的想法可能会更多~~
我是去排队买票的，下意识的决定，我是星期天下午7点到的。我度过了一个奇妙又古怪的晚上，我听了一些我收藏的Cabin Pressure（←不知道这个的童鞋请去置顶帖补习），还和一些很和善的人们讨论了一下怪物。。当我决定我要抢一张靠近舞台的票子的时候我是有点歇斯底里的，因为我在剧院的后排看过很多次了，所以当我想要在近距离看一次的时候，我想说这个想法太自然了，而且我很高兴我真的那么做了，这是一次非凡的经历啊，我很久都没用那么棒的经历了！
演出那是相当的扣人心弦。我已经失语了，最起码我现在不知道用啥词汇去描述它，但这场令人难以置信的制作改变了我对它原有的看法，让我对这出戏有了进一步的认识。这场戏的每一句台词，演员的每一个动作，每一个场景都表现出了超凡的意义，那个出生的场景非常的棒，剧中的玩笑话也说的恰到好处，当ben演的教授和怪物正面对峙的时候，ben哭了（看的出来ben童鞋是彻彻底底的入戏了，我从来没有见过演的那么好的演员），这场戏真是太深入人心了。看到最后一出的时候我那叫一个梨花带雨泪牛满面啊，我一直最爱那一幕，而那一场演的又是那么完美和令人心痛。于是我的泪水就止不住的往下淌，演员谢幕了我还在那哭。。因为对我来说这个经历这场演出就是太棒了啊，就算单独挑出来看——我遇到了那么多棒极了的人们，经历了四个神奇的夜晚，我的心境跟随着这个剧起起落落那么多次，按理看了那么多遍不会再那样了。这就是在戏院看戏的好处和坏处吧（←应该就是每次你都能看的很投入，但每次看完都已经哭的没个人样儿了）
JLM和BC绝对是倾力演出啊。当然我没有资格去评价这个那个，因为这是我有shi以来坐过的最好的观众位子，而且我已经被糖分和咖灰因弄的很high了，但是我相信，对我而言，那个下午会是一个最好的回忆，作为我经历过的最好的演出。这个经历同样让我重新审视我之前对剧院的印象。而且，我之前从不知道JLM是谁——我想从这点上我就暴露出我是谁家的粉了。
他们都从剧院门口冒出来了，包括Nick Dear，还有其他很多的剧组成员，他们给观众们签名和观众们聊天。当他们冒出来的时候，每个人都得到了欢呼喝彩，当nick试图潜回ben身边的时候他做出了十分诡异但很可爱的高速转体动作（不知道在讲啥~）。我没有接近ben或者JLM，因为人好多，而且看起来他们都好累，但是我确实得到了一些和那些演员攀谈的机会。对我来说挺重要的是我逮到了Lizzie Winkler，她扮演的agatha并未引起人们的注意，但是她替补演出过elizabeth，而且她演的很棒，我很想对她那么说，而且我真的得到了这个机会，好好开心呢！
在某一个时刻，我将会总结一下我到底想说些什么，并且把思路理的清楚些——在这些想法溜走之前。不过，我不觉得我会忘了这些想法和记忆呢。
同时，我也会向国家剧院写封邮件，纯粹是为了买票的经历，我们领到了号，这样就没有人可以插队啦，保安给了我们他的电话号码，并且会定时来查看情况，而且给我们喝茶并让我们用那边的厕所，而且他对我们说，他从来没见过这番排队的景象。。。
谁接力？

结束了？

坐等呢。。呵呵~~~~
BC再也不能亲米勒了 哈哈
