Rupert won!
Yey! :) Rupert won the London Newcomer of the year award and it kind of made my evening! :) Congratulations!
I know he'll probably be in lots of plays in the next few years but I used my window of opportunity to see him in this first one live and to me, that makes it really memorable. I most likely won't ever see him live again, living in fucking Mordor where I do, but I really wanted him to win this one where I witness what an excellent actor he was - and he did! :D
I know being in Harry Potter probably made this award happen for him - but that doesn't make him any less worthy of receiving it, mind you! Yeah, I'm kind of the mother hen here, all protective of "my babies". ;)
So yey again! Happy and proud of him! And of myself, to getting all my resources together (financial and otherwise) and see him when I could!
Plus, Potter, erm Daniel was there as well, and I believe he also walked out with quite an award himself. The reunion photos look quite lovely!
I'm just... kind of made happy by this after an exhausting day, so yeah - shoot me. I know it's adolescent and stupid, but I can't care rat's arse if it is. I was really rooting for it (of course I voted and I probably wouldn't have unless I saw him live) - and I guess I was not the only one!
