Although, in common with most of what I read at uni. I don't remember much about it. And yes, I'd totally be interested in reading your paper on cinema and theatre.

Makes some interesting points about the redundancy of the notion of livness these days. Not sure I entirely agree but its worth a read.<BR/><BR/>National may well be 50/50 - it just feels a lot less as the new pieces are generally so utterly forgettable.
