It's part of our history, and we shouldnt hide it. Industrialisation was a big time in the past.

What about imperialism? That would make for an entertaining show!

Totally blown away, in 20 minutes they've totally changed the whole stage just like that wow

They're taking the hobbits to Isengard!

 

[Roders5]

Just a general "Northern Ireland, fuck yeah," by me. Northern Ireland, fuck yeah!
Best part was Victorian techno dancing.

This is by Danny Boyle, so the music is OBVIOUSLY underworld.
