Absolutely sensational. The play is done just like it was when it was created by The Bard - men playing the female roles and -what a treat- Mark Rylance as Olivia. The exciting cast includes Stephen Fry and Paul Chahidi, who makes good on his reputation as a "scene stealer." The late 16th Century text is not a barrier here, it is enjoyable and easy to follow. Those who want to explore further may want to look up the great Mark Rylance and his reasons for signing the Declaration of Reasonable Doubt.
