Day 02: Favourite Comedy RoleVeronica Novak, God of CarnageI know that technically there is some really intense events involved in this play, but I consider it a comedy because I sure as shit laughed my motherfuckin’ ass off all eight times in which I viewed this show. Watching Veronica (aka “Darjeeling”) go from being mannerly and polite to screaming “fucking Neanderthal” and “I’ll talk to whomever I goddamn well please” was the single greatest thing of my entire life. She was hilarious and knew how to lose her fucking mind on stage, what with the pillow-throwing and mimicking (“Alan, heeeelp!”) and rum-bottle-tug-o’-war, and the infamous punching of her fundamentally uncouth husband, Michael. Oh, btw, pretend that Ken Stott is really Jeff Daniels in that above picture and that Ralph Fiennes is actually Dylan Baker…you know, since I saw the American version. But, anyhoodle, Veronica is made of magic and magnificence, and I could probably watch Janet perform in the role every single day for the rest of my natural born life, and never get bored. She’s that mesmerizing. -- source link
