Beowulf: Lord of the Bros, Better than the original?
I had the pleasure of viewing the NC state production of Beowulf, Lord of the Bros this weekend. After a full viewing I can confirm that it was better than the book. I have never related to Beowulf as strongly as I did until I viewed the play. I'm sure this is exactly what the author of Beowulf originally intended. I also enjoyed all the jewish stuff popping up all over the play, and am sure to bring the dreidel drinking game with me to whatever creepy frat I join once I leave this hell hole of a school.
This is my second freebie for a blogpost in a row. Do I feel bad? No. My goal is to finesse my way into having a freebie for every blogpost all year.
Side Note: After the play I saw the person who played Beowulf walking around the student center in a ramen noodle hoodie. #college
I wish that everyone could've witnessed Andrew's excitement when they started playing spin the dreidel/dreidel pong/I think they were just making stuff up? I think that the only reason you liked the play is because it mentioned Judaism which is like your favorite topic to bring up so hooray! I'm glad you had a great time and got something out of whatever they were trying to portray because I got nothing. #bro
