A friend of mine suggested I read it while I was here. “Just Kids” by Patti Smith “I have only just started reading it.

When you’re onstage and you’re waiting around for a long time, you don’t want to keep asking people to get you bottles of water.Ĩ. And when we get into tech, we’ll be in the theater for 12, 13 hours of the day. I just saw these water bottles online, they tell you which hour of the day you need to drink your water by. I’ve been trying to be quite militant about that, especially being onstage. It’s not easy but it makes me feel so much better. One-gallon Water Bottle I try to drink a gallon of water every day. Unfortunately, I couldn’t bring my dog here with me so he is in London, being looked after by a family member.ħ.

She’d already done a small sketch for me and then she did a proper oil painting, which is great. She asked me for a picture of him - he’s a French bulldog. A Painting of His Dog My auntie Maureen did a painting of my dog and gave it to me. Friends will send me music a lot, and just hearing it online, on telly. I don’t really go out to bars and clubs anymore so I just find out about it through other people. I enjoy podcasts but I’m definitely more of a music guy. Apple AirPods If I’m out in the street or on the tube in London - I haven’t done the subway yet in New York - it’s a way of zoning out. I’ve brought mostly family pieces, nothing I’ve collected - that’s all at home.ĥ. A Photo of His Daughter I’ve got framed pictures that I take with me when I go away for a shoot or to be onstage. The acidity helps with the throat and the vocal cords, to kind of clear them. Pineapple Chunks I keep them in the fridge when I’m doing anything onstage. There’s a track called “Nobody Knows” that I’ve been listening to quite a lot.ģ. Barrett, whose records kind of resurfaced in the last 10, 15 years. And to get out of it I’ve been listening to Pastor T.L. I listen to “My Ever Changing Moods” by the Style Council, it just rang true for the character for some reason.

I have a portable Marshall speaker - they’re really good quality. Barrett and the Youth for Christ Choir I usually create a playlist of music for each character I play. Theragun is what a 35 year-old-man needs.Ģ. There’s definitely physical aspects to playing this part in “Hangmen” - his posture is sort of upright and slightly rigid so I need my muscles to be in good working order. Massage Gun I have quite tight muscles, so I purchased one of those at Christmas in anticipation of being onstage in New York. These are edited excerpts from the conversation.ġ. “I think I can sing and I think I can act, but I’m not sure I can dance.”įrom the New York apartment that’s his home base for the run of the show, Allen went over 10 items he deems essential as he focuses on withstanding the physical demands of a Broadway schedule. “If somebody thought my musical talents were adequate, then I would definitely give it a thought,” he said. Something that came up a lot was music, though Allen laughed when asked if he would ever do a musical. “There is a freedom to Mooney that can be perceived and performed in so many different ways, such is the brilliance of Martin’s writing,” Allen, who had seen a production at London’s Wyndham’s Theater, said in a recent video chat. And as dark and twisted as Mooney’s psyche is, the part should feel like a vacation compared to Allen’s eight seasons as Theon Greyjoy, one of the most tragic characters on “Game of Thrones.” It’s a juicy role and you can see why Alfie Allen chose it for his American stage debut - the play is currently in previews at the Golden Theater. He describes himself as “vaguely menacing,” but he is also rather coolly charismatic: This is a “spiffy young devil,” as The New York Times’s Ben Brantley put it in his review of the play’s Off Broadway premiere in 2018. In the Martin McDonagh play “Hangmen,” set in the 1960s, a mysterious fellow named Mooney turns up out of the blue in a London pub.
