"You can't exactly say no to him..."
Miles Mandwelle (Actor/Musician)
Guys, over the summer, I became obsessed with Slings & Arrows.
Ob-sessed.
I have never in my life watched a series from start to finish in one week.
So it should come as no surprise that now I'm in directing school, my inner Geoffrey Tennant wants to break loose.
I'm not sure this is the best idea.
Let's look at some classic Geoffrey Tennant moments and accept why this is a bad idea.
MILES MANDWELLE is a directing student at North Carolina School of the Arts. Similar to Geoffrey Tennant, he goes on tangents, becomes upset, has occasional flashes of brilliance, but is largely scared of his own shadow, like that dastard, Puxatawney Phil. Oh, and also, he doesn’t comb his hair and rarely shaves. The hilarity of this is heightened because he looks like he's thirteen, and is planning on throwing himself a Bar Mitzvah for his next birthday.

His direction with “Claire the hair” re: Ophelia’s inner workings is so brilliant it ALWAYS sends chills down my spine.

yes but we must remember that geoffrey tennant is a douchebag. He doesn't know his artistic or personal boundaries and he does not have a good sense of responsibility. Basically...why TRUE actors should never be given the Artistic Director hat.

I became obsessed with this show over this summer, too!! I couldn't stop watching, which is actually rare for me. Glad to know others had the same experience!
