Sold out as soon as the tickets went on sale, and I doubt either Stewart or McKellan need the money. They've all the theatrical accolades they could ask for and are getting mostly rave reviews. A jape, then, or Stewart genuinely believed he was spooked? |

... And yet, I've never heard of this performance at all, until you mentioned it here, Mark.... Not that I'm a cultural dipstick or anything - er, whatever. |

Both actors regularly sell out their tours within hours, Craig. Tickets are like gold dust, as they say. |
