APB on BAM

I got a subscriber announcement in the mail on Wednesday from the Royal Shakespeare Company announcing that they were bringing the final show of their year-long Complete Works festival on tour.

King Lear with Ian McKellen. September at the BAM Harvey Theater in Brooklyn.

I need to see this show.

It is already sold out.

I have wanted very little more than this. I will do whatever it takes, I don’t care. Flying to the two other tour stops on this continent is under consideration.

Advice, suggestions, connections both legal and otherwise, desperately sought.

Edited to add: oh my goodness oh my goodness oh my goodness I’m going I’m going I’m going I’m going!
