I was lucky to have been able to see 'Mojo' on the second of November. It was the one of the most memorable nights of this year, and my life. The show was fantastic, Rupert did a great job - but I must add that all the other actors particularly Ben Whishaw gave a stand out performance. It was such an amazing experience. I had a grin on my face through the whole length of the show, I just couldn't shake it. Partly because it was hilarious thus I couldn't physically stop laughing, and secondly because I couldn't believe Rupert - someone who I've admired for so long, and who I've grown up with was in the same room as me. Like I could see him in real life. It was a dream come true.

After the show I went to the stage door to try my luck, and although I saw him from a distance unfortunatley I didn't get to meet him, as he didn't go all the way down the line. Then by chance I saw him at the front of the theater, and got a photo with him. Like he spoke to me, and he touched me. Like he touched me. And it was just so surreal. It was interesting because I'm not someone who ever really dreams of meeting celebrities, but Rupert Grint is someone I've always wanted to meet. I am now happy, and feel I can move on with my life so to speak. It was interesting though because after I got the photo I went and stood on the curb and watched as the phenomena of fans huddled around the whole cast. There was a lot of fuss, and squealing. I found it funny to sort of see it all play out right in front of me.

I walked away in a whirl of excitement, I was definitely on a high. I kept saying aloud, "Did that just happen?" and "Did I just meet Rupert Grint?" and "Is this really happening to me?" The fact was the answer was yes to all of them. It was insane.

On a side note: I love the t-shirts that Rupert and Daniel Mays are wearing. 'Fish are jumping, and the cotton is high,' is a line from the show, which in context to the play is hilarious. Also if you get a chance to see 'Mojo' go see it because it's a great show, and you are sure to have a fun night.
