Our friends at CBR have a very nice video interview with MARK FROST, the actor who portrays Joker in the play BATMAN LIVE! that is now touring the US. Starting in California this Septerber, the show is supposed to tour the whole US by next year. Here what Frost himself has to say about his character:
“I think the Joker…brings a bit of fun and a bit of creativity to the proceedings. I certainly get as many wonderful toys to play with, I get as many interesting and surprising entrances and exits. You never quite know what he’s gonna do next.”
And here is the video. Just click to watch:
Have to admit, when I first heard of this play I thought it was the most ludricuous idea ever…I mean. With all the special effects needed, how were they going to translate the Caped Crusader into the stage…RIGHT? Well, as I saw more footage of the stage show, the more intriged I became on what this theatrical company have been able to achieve for this show. I would even go to one of their shows…just for the heck of it…and to see me some Joker OF COURSE!!
For more information on schedules of their presentations here in the US, please refer to their website BATMAN LIVES

Now I want to buy tickets for this show so I can sit in the audience and yell, “Hell yeah get ’em Joker!” every time he walks on stage.
I’m thinking of getting tickets to see the show too…don’t know yet, but hope they show in a place nearby.
You and me both girl. 😀
